I want to explore migration from the PI to a bigger machine, now that Umbrel 0.5 supports easy install. I assume this should be something along the lines:

- Set up new Umbrel on Unix machine
- Shut down both nodes
- Copy some folders from the original node’s SSD to the new node’s SSD
- Start the new node

My question is what folders should be copied in the step 3. Or maybe I have missed some steps?
