The up arrow (for repeating commands) and tab key (or Ctrl-I) (for completing
commands and filenames) will speed up your work at the command line greatly.
The examples in this tutorial are geared towards Bitcoin, but with some
modification they may be used with altcoins and forkcoins for which MMGen
supports transaction operations (BCH, LTC, ETH and ETC as of this writing).

On your online computer, go to your coin daemon’s data directory (`~/.bitcoin`
by default for Bitcoin Core) and move any existing `wallet.dat` file out of
harm’s way. With more recent coin daemons, `wallet.dat` can be found in the
`wallets` subdirectory of the daemon data directory.
Start the coin daemon with the required options (see the [Install-Bitcoind][08]
wiki page for more details on invoking the daemon for your coin and platform).
Upon startup, older daemons will automatically generate a new default
`wallet.dat`, which MMGen will use as its tracking wallet. With newer daemons
(e.g. Core 0.21.0 and above), the tracking wallet will be a directory named
`mmgen-tracking-wallet` located by default in the `wallets` subdirectory.
