Is there a specific way to shift the docker daemon and the docker support from /data folder on the drone to external sd card. The current storage in /data is only 12 Gigabytes and I wanted to load a 10GB image tarball. If there are some forum posts or official documentation. Please guide me through it

@Darshit-Desai Does this help: https://docs.modalai.com/docker-on-voxl/#move-docker-image-from-data-to-mntsdcard?

@Eric-Katzfey Thanks for sharing the link. I had a question about the existing docker images on /data. Do I need to archive and remove the docker images before following the instructions given in the documentation?

@Darshit-Desai I'm not sure but I think you can just leave them there and they will be ignored when using the new location.

@Eric-Katzfey It seems like the below command implicitly deletes all images.

I will archive those images before removing it.

Delete the directories that docker uses in the data partition:cd /data; rm -rf containers linkgraph.db overlay tmp volumes graph network repositories-overlay trust

[NOTE] The previous commands will delete any images that were previously available.

Thanks

@Eric-Katzfey I was able to run to the point where I remove the docker support from /data folder but when I try to do voxl-configure-docker-support.sh it doesn't work. Any ideas what might be wrong here?

```
voxl:/mnt/sdcard$ cd /data
voxl:/data$ voxl-configure-docker-support.sh
-bash: voxl-configure-docker-support.sh: command not found
voxl:/data$ cd
voxl:~$ voxl-configure-docker-support.sh
-bash: voxl-configure-docker-support.sh: command not found
voxl:~$
```

@Darshit-Desai Try `voxl-configure-docker-support`
