Daedalus on Linux | IOHK Statement

Partly yes, by adding the followings into the deadalus shell script:

  1. export XDG_DATA_HOME=<wherever you want it to store> and or set it globally (not recommended)
  2. add -p XDG_DATA_HOME to the nix chroot.

As it will create the Daedalus/mainnet directory under the XDG_DATA_HOME.

A working example:

export XDG_DATA_HOME=/home/user/mainnet_db
 
exec ./nix/store/4xbn31l2fr95vp9z7g7ayxzy19ywcpnd-nix-user-chroot-2c52b5f/bin/nix-user-chroot \ 
-n ./nix -c -m /home:/home -m /etc:/host-etc -m etc:/etc -p DISPLAY \ 
-p HOME -p XAUTHORITY \ 
-p XDG_DATA_HOME \ 
-- /nix/var/nix/profiles/profile/bin/enter-phase2 daedalus
