Hello all

I have recently repartitioned the hard drive on my computer which required me to reinstall ubuntu. I then installed Armory 0.91. I backed up the blocks that I had downloaded from Armory 0.90 and am looking to re-import them to the hidden armory folder. Is there any way of ensuring that 0.91 sees these and continues downloading on from there? I do not want to have to download the whole blockchain a second time.

Thanks

I think you're confusing a few things.

Armory doesn't download anything per say. It piggy back on BitcoinQt's blockchain download, and builds a database off of it. What you need to copy is the ~/.bitcoin hidden folder.

As for Armory's DB, you can just copy the files and point Armory to the folder, but that won't work in your case, as the 0.91 DB isn't compatible with the 0.90 one.
