Different folder for configuration

Configuration
1

Hi,

There is the following statement in the documentation (https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/):
If you want to use a different folder for configuration, use the configuration command line parameter: hass --config path/to/config.

I am not able to make this work (Home Assistant 0.109.6) trying all possible options through ssh commands like:
ha --config path/to/config
ha os --config path/to/config
ha core --config path/to/config

Is it really possible to change the configuration directory?

Not with your install method, no. It’s only an option for Python pip installs.
