Not sure what you mean by default? I am trying to follow your instructions- "backup wallet.dat and copy to linux machine" I've built a linux machine and now all I need to do is figure out how to transfer my wallet from windows and import into linux wallet.
I mean that:
1. go to
Roaming/snowgem, copy
wallet.dat2. put
wallet.dat to
.snowgem in Linux
3. run the wallet
You'll see your coins

I must be missing a step or something. I did exactly that and when I run the wallet in linux there is no sign of coins. I copied the wallet.dat to .snowgem and started up ./snowgemd which appears to be a worker type thing that verifies transactions. I tried opening snowgem-cli but it doesn't appear to be attached to my wallet.dat so I tried to add the wallet but that didnt work. What am I missing? Sorry I'm not the most skilled in Linux and I am trying to follow the instructions as best I can.
