Title: Switching from Windows to Linux Post by: DevaVictrix on June 21, 2017, 06:19:41 PM I've just bought a second computer and don't really want to buy another copy of Windows. So the obvious thing to do is use a Linux distro.
Will I have to download the Ethereum blockchain again or can I somehow copy the blockchain from my Windows computer? Thank you!

With only 2 rigs, you should be pool mining.
