Entering a mounted drive throught the terminal
Hi,
I'm new to Ubuntu. I have been using windows vista before I decided to try Ubuntu, and I have successfully mounted my old drive to Ubuntu. I can enter it fine from the GUI, but I can't figure out how to do it through the terminal. when i cd to /media, I can see my ACER drive, but I dont know how to enter it. Could anyone help me out?
Thanks!

Try this:
You'll see the list of files and directories listed. From there, you can cd into the sub-directories.Code:cd /media ls -l

I would suggest you to check Linuxcommand.org. A very good site to learn basic Linux commands.

Thank you for your replies,
I'm sorry, I think I was a little unclear in my question. I already tried to cd into the mounted hard drive, but I got an error. Something along the lines of "can't cd into the device". I can check what the exact error I'm getting is when I get home. When I run ls, the ACER har drive shows up in blue.
