Here is an answer from Start9 (npub126n…e9ll) :
Switching between the two is a little complicated because of the way this is temporarily set up to allow both to exist and share the same blockchain. Because they do share it, definitely don't uninstall anything. The trick is to get access to downgrade and reinstall options, each of which might be relevant depending on what versions and upgrades are available.
Basically...
Reinstall method
In the StartOS System tab, click the “Manage” heading 5+ times to enable developer mode.
Visit the Marketplace, and the version you want to install. Click “Reinstall” on the service, or
If you get a notification claiming the install failed. Don’t worry, it succeeded. You just need to open the config and click “Save”.
Downgrade method (should not be needed unless the versions are out of sync)
In the StartOS System tab, click the “Manage” heading 5+ times to enable developer mode. (Do this anyway if you'd a switcher, might be useful later)
Visit the Marketplace, and the version you want to install. Scroll down to Versions and select at least one version down.
Install that.
There'd be no need to resync, and all dependent services should be happy.
In StartOS 0.3.6 this will all be unnecessary, and the process of switching between Bitcoin implementations will be streamlined.

quoting note1xkl…pk07I’m currently running Bitcoin Knots on my Start9 server but would like to switch back to #Bitcoin Core. However, I’m unable to install or update Bitcoin Core while Knots is still running.
I’m hesitant to uninstall Knots before installing Bitcoin Core, as I’m concerned it might disrupt my Lightning channels.
Can I safely uninstall Knots and install Bitcoin Core without affecting my existing blockchain data or requiring a full re-download?
Additionally, when I attempt to update Bitcoin Core, I receive the following error (see photo)
Would appreciate any guidance on the best way to proceed. Thanks in advance.
