Super-n00b question about folder/directories
I'm trying out an application where I for the first time don't browse to a folder but rather type it in from scratch...
The folder path I'm trying to type in is on the internal memory card and named /stuff/stuff2 (as an example). I can NOT figure out how to do the whole file path. I've even tried /internal memory card/stuff/stuff2 - but that didn't work :) Help? :) |
Re: Super-n00b question about folder/directories
For the internal memory card, use this:
Code:
/media/mmc2/stuff/stuff2 Should be all set! :D Jesse~ |
Re: Super-n00b question about folder/directories
Thanks!! That worked. I'm not sure..but it seemed as if it was even case-sensitive.
So...the 'root' directory on the internal memory card is "/media/mmc2/" then? Interesting and confusing at the same time and another push for me to start learning some Linux :) |
Re: Super-n00b question about folder/directories
Yeah, directories can be a pain for new tablet users and people who have never really worked with Linux before.
Also, yes, directories are case-sensitive, which is a good thing in most cases. Glad you got it working. Also, yes, /media/mmc2 is the full directory for the internal card and /media/mmc1 is the full directory for the external (removable) card. Now you can change the "Linux skill level" in your sig from None to "Close-to-none". ;) Jesse~ |

2 things I (also new to linux) found useful : The emelFM2 filemanager to explore the file system. The command "find -name xyz" from root in xterm; wildcards can be used, e.g. "find -name *conboy*" to find all(?) files the app. Conboy uses. |
