What happened

After changing the install procedure in the develop branch,
it turns out that new user tend to be overwhelmed by the configuration script, even it is designed as an "guided" procedure.

Therefor I will rework that, so that in the end the make config ist targeted to advanced/experienced users.

That means I will set the default paths to "printer_data" if no configuration file is found.

After these changes I will merge that new Installer to master.

What did you expect to happen

A "seamless" user experience.

Nobody should be overwhelmed by an Installer.

How to reproduce

Follow the steps to Install as described in README.md in develop branch.

For anyone looking for a workaround and isn't advanced enough to use the development branch, here's a fix to move the paths over to printer_data.

sudo service crowsnest stop
mv ~/klipper_config/crowsnest.conf ~/printer_data/config/

sudo sed -i 's/klipper_config\//printer_data\/config\//'\
 /etc/systemd/system/crowsnest.service

sudo sed -i 's/~\/klipper_logs\/crowsnest.log/~\/printer_data\/logs\/crowsnest.log/'\
 ~/printer_data/config/crowsnest.conf

rm -rf ~/klipper_config
sudo service crowsnest start
