There is a simpler way.

create two scripts in /usr/bin called updatedb and locate

updatedb

Code:

find / -print > /medi/mmc2/locate.db

locate

Code:

grep "$1" /media/mmc2/locatedb | more

then use

Code:

crontab -e

to add the following line in roots crontab

Code:

0 4 * * * /usr/bin/updatedb

then to run just use

Code:

locate leafpad
