Define migration steps for users upgrading to the rebased version

Open ch4ot1c opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

Documentation is needed for users who will be upgrading from BTCP 1.0.12-1. Items include:

  • [x] Discuss wallet.dat compatibility issues + solutions, if any.
  • [ ] Discuss other files that would need to be moved from ~/.btcprivate to ~/.btcp.
  • [ ] Mention files, env vars that won't need to move/change (e.g. ~/.zcash-params).
  • [ ] Present a link to necessary migration scripts to run, if any.
  • [x] Present a link to a 'clean start' option.

'Clean start' simply needs to be an uninstaller for the prior versions.
