Hi there, running Umbrel OS 0.5.4 on a raspberry and it is and was very very slow from the start.
Just updated Lightning Node App to v0.16.3-beta. This and the previous version didn’t launch. Basically loading breaks up roughly 3/4 in.
The Bitcoin Node App runs and the node is at 100%.
Can anyone help me with a terminal command to store the channel setup on the attached hard drive? I’ll swap the raspberry with a mini PC but I need to save the Lightning info before doing so.

…I’d like to add that Ride the Lightning prompts this when launched.
Error 500
Waiting To Start, Rpc Services Not Available

Any resolution to this issue? My RP umbrel is behaving the exact way you describe
