I set up a new umbrel with knots, syncing nicely. But on another umbrel that already had core, it doesn't look like its a drop in replacement, as a test I tried to run knots in parallel, but it started syncing from 0, so I guess umbrel assignes a different datadir. I have to test this a bit more, but it looks like if I uninstall the Bitcoin (core) app it will also delete the blockchain and knots will then just start syncing from scratch...
