I use this command because it allows me to sync the Geth blockchain to an external SD card rather than to the internal hard drive:

geth --datadir /media/user/sdcard/chaindata --ipcdisable

However, if there was a way to use it with the console it would be even better.

I have tried this but it doesn't work:

geth console --datadir /media/user/sdcard/chaindata --ipcdisable

Is it possible to use the command with the console and if so, how?
