You can try the following operations:

$ mount /dev/sd.. /mnt
$ chia stop -d all
$ mv ~/.chia /mnt/chia
$ ln -s /mnt/chia ~/.chia
$ chia start ...

By design you can use the CHIA_ROOT environment variable to set another directory.
https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/wiki/Quick-Start-Guide#install

• stop the chia daemon
• move ~/.chia to the new destination
• set the environment variable by executing
  export CHIA_ROOT=/your/new/destination/.chia/mainnet
• restart the chia daemon

To make the evironment variable persistent across reboot, insert the line above into your .bashrc
