I believe you can put quotes around the directory so in this case it would be: cd /mnt/windows/"Program Files" Aaron At 07:10 AM 10/2/2000 -0400, you wrote: >Have you tried this one yet? > > cd /mnt/windows/progra~1 > (progra~1) is what you will need to get there. > >-- >Mark > >** =/\= No Penguins were harmed | ICQ#27816299 >** <_||_> in the making of this | >** =\/= message...| Registered Linux user #182496 > > >On Mon, 2 Oct 2000 12:29pm ,John Rye spake passionately in a message: > > > Goldenpi wrote: > > > > > > Sound like me.

Have you tried this one yet? cd /mnt/windows/progra~1 (progra~1) is what you will need to get there. -- Mark ** =/\= No Penguins were harmed | ICQ#27816299 ** <_||_> in the making of this | ** =\/= message...| Registered Linux user #182496 On Mon, 2 Oct 2000 12:29pm ,John Rye spake passionately in a message: > Goldenpi wrote: > > > > Sound like me.

Re: [newbie] hacker or cracker was: Telneting
it should already be mounted or atleast mine was when i installed linux, try cd /mnt/windows/Program%Files im not sure about the % it is only because unix based systems dont recognize spaces in a folder name In a message dated 01-Oct-00 16:48:35 Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << Mount the C drive under Linux, "mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/disk" and then go to it by typing "cd /mnt/disk/"Program Files"" > oh, how to I get to c:\Program files in a linux console?

Re: [newbie] hacker or cracker was: Telneting
Oh yeah, eesh, I almost forgot, when I was a windoze user, I heard the term hacker used and I thought it meant devoted programmer, which I was used to hearing in my unix days (I was only 5 but learning, then my dad changed computer systems, no more unix, for a long time-- DOH!) and I heard "hacker" being used in the "wrong" way and I soon learned that in the windoze world, it is used to mean cracker, just as -- yech!! "software author" is used to mean -- ahem -- *Programmer*. Just my opinion, but I can't stand it when someone calls a programmer a "software author" it is demeaning. anyway back to some hacking??
