changing directory to an external hard-drive
Hi!
I am currently in: Users/Name/ in Linux. However I wish to use data which is on an external hard-drive. I have tried cd /media/harddrive, and various other things with no success! Does anyone know how to change directory into an external hard-drive or USB? Thanks! |
sorry but the question is not so clear.. maybe it's a problem of mne, but I can't understand what exactly is the point..
1. do you have yet mounted your USB or CD device? 2. did you do it with a file manager (thunar, nautilus, etc. etc.) or manually? now: if you haven't still mounted it you must authenticate as root (or use sudo, indeed) and: Code:
mount /dev/YOUR.DEVICE /media/zip if the device is an USB ones, usually you can find it in Code:
/dev/sdb1 the Code:
/media/zip Code:
/media/LABEL.NAME |
Yes thank you very much, it appears I had not mounted the hard-drive!
