Help linking External Storage for bitcoin data using Raspberry Pi?

0

I mounted my external disk to wrong directory (wanted it to be ~/bitcoinData) , instead ended up creating a directory on SD card ( /home/pi/bitcoinData ) and now SD card (root) is full. i cannot seem to delete SD card bitcoinData directory (permission denied). how do i fix this? and link hdd to correct directory?

For a change in the directory, I agree with @UgamKamat but I think the problem not is correlated with bitcoin core but the permission user in your raspberry pi. try a command to the terminal with sudo rm -r path/bitcoinvincenzopalazzo 2019-10-04T09:11:28.640

1i have resolved this, i believe it was a user permissions issue. thanksgaiameta 2019-10-06T00:32:38.833
