## How do I return to the menu after exiting to the command line
Type the command `raspiblitz` to return to the main menu if you exited to the command line.
## Can I run RaspiBlitz on other computers than RaspberryPi?
There is an experimental section in this GitHub that tries to build for other SingleBoardComputers. Feel free to try it out and share your experience: [alternative.platforms/README.md](alternative.platforms/README.md)

- the 24 words seed
- the latest `channel.backup` file
The word seed you got during wallet setup, to write it down and to keep it at a safe (offline) location. The `channel.backup` is stored on the HDD and updated by LND everytime a new channel is opened or closed. The lastest version of this file is needed to recover all your funds (if possible). In case your HDD gets damaged, RaspiBlitz always keeps a copy of the latest version of the `channel.backup` file on the SD card within the subdirectories of: `/home/admin/.lnd/data/chain/`.

If you want to get one step further in securing your funds against total fall-out of the RaspiBlitz (gets completly damaged, stolen or lost) then you can additional setup an off-loctaion or cloud backup of the `channel.backup` file. The file itself is encrypted by your word seed - so its OK to store the file to untrusted third parties for backup (if you want). The feature is still new ... here is how you can set it up -a t the moment the following two off-loctaion options are available (and/or):

## Prepare Blockchain Copy Station
In the RaspiBlitz Github repo and also on every RaspiBlitz (since v1.3) you can find the script:
`/home/admin/CCcopyStation.sh`
`/home/admin/XXcopyStation.sh`
This can be used to prepare and keep multiple HDDs in snyc with blockchain data in preparation of a workshop. You can start it directly on a RaspiBlitz and turn it into "Copy Station Mode" with executing on the command line:
`sudo /home/admin/CCcopyStation.sh`
`sudo /home/admin/XXcopyStation.sh`
*Beware that it will not run as a Lightning Node during that time (LND is stopped). And to reset it back into normal mode you need to stop the script with `CTLR+c` and the reboot with `sudo shutdown -r now`.*
In "COpy Station Mode" the RaspiBlitz will just run the bitcoind (so it needs network connection), copy fresh blockchain data over to a template folder on the HDD called `/mnt/hdd/templateHDD` and from there syncs it to further HDDs that get connected to it.

If you run it in a setup lke on this photo with an extra powered USB hub, you can connect up to 10 HDDs at once to be synced with an almost up-to-date blockchain.
