Directory Tree
At the risk of coming across as fairly clueless once again ...
...could somebody do me a big favor and post some info on file and folder locations within the Iliad directory tree? Linux folder names mean very little to me and I have the hardest time using the otherwise extremely useful emelf port to navigate my way around. All I want to do is copy and/or cut/paste files between the assigned locations (books, news etx.) and the CF and SD card. Since a lot of the ported software runs of the CF card, I've been able to figure out how to get there - but where the dickens are books/news/documents/notes? And what are the other folders for? And which ones should I really, really stay away from? Help! |

User partition on internal memory: /mnt/free
CF card: /mnt/cf/ SD/MMC card: /mnt/card USB-stick: /mnt/usb For the unix/linux specific file hierarchy see: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Unix_directory_structure or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesys...archy_Standard And just a basic rule of thumb: don't touch anything unless you know exactly what it is. hth |

Thanks a lot, that was really all I needed - never in a million years would I have looked in mnt/free.
I really must acquire some basic Linux knowledge, thanks for the links! |
