A pop-up window says:
"Error: Specified data directory "/media/xub" does not exist"

I can't find a guide anywhere on how to write the path to an encrypted SDcard.?
Is it a different path because it is encrypted?

"lsblk" command shows the drives, but is there another, similar command that would help?

Could you explain what you mean by it doesn't work?  Does it throw an error message?  Does Bitcoin-qt just use the default directory?

Basically, i'm looking to run Bitcoin Armory, and Litecoin on TailsDVD, with an LUKS encrypted SD card for persistence.
Right now, i'm practicing in xubuntu.
so how do i type in the "datadir" command in xubuntu?
First, i type "lsblk" to see the drives.
it lists my SD as:

sr0
/media/xub
mmcblk0
  mmcblk0p1
    luks-8928212337-8b5h-42h7-vg2f-f4e429jdn2k22(dm-1)
/media/xub


i tried this and it doesnt work:
./bitcoin-qt -datadir=/media/xub

Eventually, i want to run Armory on TailsDVD, but i gotta figure out the basics first...

Thanks for any help guys!
