$PATH on the second disk
 

Hi,

I've written a simple bash script to modify my mp3s' names. Everything works fine when I use it on my primary hd (IDE - where /, /home, and other directories are.) However, most of my music collection
is on the second drive (SATA - mounted in fstab as the /home/data directory)
Whenever I type the name of the script while being in my music directory (the second drive) it just can't find the program.

/home/sycamorex/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:


The script is in /home/sycamorex/bin

any ideas?
thanks

I don't know what I did, but it works ok now. don't ask me:)

Try removing the trailing ':' from your path. Also, if your setting this in your .bashrc file, the best thing to do is probably have a line like "export PATH=/home/sycamorex/bin:$PATH" if you don't already have that.

Oh, and I know it sounds dumb, but double check your spelling. I don't know how many times that's burned me...

Thanks sleepylight, it might have been one of the things you mentioned.
