i need help doing the following can someone guide me through the steps please I'm usung ubuntu

PART1 CREATE A FILE STRUCTURE
Recreate the following file structure starting from your home directory.
userid
`lab01a
|-- one
| |-- 1.txt
| `-- three
| |-- 3.txt
| `-- four
| `-- 4.txt
`-- two
|-- 2.txt
`-- five
`-- 5.txt

NOTE:userid represents your vlab userid.

Directories: lab01a, one, two, three, four, five
Text Files: 1.txt, 2.txt, 3.txt, 4.txt, 5.txt

1.txt file content: Linux is an Operating System
2.txt file content: Linux is based on Unix
3.txt file content: vlab uses Fedora8
4.txt file content: cis440 at cis174
5.txt file content: putty.exe is an ssh client application


PART2*COPY SECTION
Under your home folder copy the entire lab01a file structure into lab01b directory with ___________________________________

Write down below the commands used to copy all the text files
found within lab01a into a directory called lab01c:

FILE1:___________________________________________________
FILE2:___________________________________________________
FILE3:___________________________________________________
FILE4:___________________________________________________
FILE5:___________________________________________________

PART3-Relative VS Absolute Addressing
Assume you are in your home directory. Using the information in Part1 above:

What is the absolute path to the file 1.txt?

What is the relative path to the file 2.txt?

What is the absolute path to the file 3.txt?

What is the relative path to the file 3.txt?

Whitespace of the attempted ASCII art tree structure did not come through correctly. In order to preserve spacing, and guarantee use of a monospace font (as opposed to a proportional font), use the "code" tags. The result will look something like this:

This looks like homework.

Look at the mkdir command; i.e., open a console and enter man mkdir. Also look at the man page for the touch command; i.e., man touch, as well as the cat command with redirection.

This is your homework; so YOU need to actually do the work. Tell us what YOU think the answers are, and we can tell you if you're off base or not. But we're not going to do your homework for you...do not ask for handouts. Show some effort of your own.

Can I have your Guacamole recipe?
Actually, can you just make it?

Tease:
touch the files.

Get some!

It should help.

But unlovely as this poem may be,
Take it. You don't get no tree.

might help a little
man mkdir

is an invalid file extenion for linux

BW-userx: Putty is an ssh client for use on Windows. It can be used to connect to Linux systems.

Darn, the only exe files I've seen were viruses.

well that is just crazy talk... what is windows again? I only remember my mom yelling at me get your head back in from that window. what are you a call girl? never understood that either because I am not a girl. lol

ps thanks for the info, but isn't he using a Linux sys already so that exe file has to be installed on Windows and not linux in order for it to work. therefore one would not see said file on a linux but windows yes?

Seems superfluous as it can be done with one command line entry.

linux is a kernel; gnu/linux is a system.linux is an open-source re-implementation of the unix kernel (without using any unix code as a base).
why such an ancient version of fedora ?
