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!

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?

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?

What does lsblk say for MOUNTPOINT?
