How Do I Run A Script?
I'm new to linux and i just downloaded slackware 11 and installed it just fine. Seems to work except i cant mount my usb storage devices, So i looked all over the internet for help and found somewhere it said "Go to /dev and run the script "MAKEDEV" and that should work" when i go to that folder in the browser and click on the "MAKEDEV" file it just opens it in a text editor. So my question is how do i run that script?

You may need to add the execuable attribute to the script.
chmod +x name_of_file Brian |
I checked the properties of the file and it is checked as executable.
I went into konsole and typed Code:
root@darkstar:~# cd /dev |
it would give you an error if it didnt work... youre fine now.
check out this podcast... http://www.linuxreality.com it helps out a whole lot esp for a new linux user (myself included). |
Ok, Thanks for the help everyone.
