    Hi. To create directories, you use the mkdir command. To create text files, use an editor e.g. nano, vim or a gui editor like Kwrite.

    You should also be able to easily use the file manager (konqueror) in Knoppix to create directories from the GUI.

    For a quick tutorial on command line operations under Linux, take a look at:

    LinuxCommand.org: Learn the Linux command line. Write shell scripts.

    To create a directory use:

    Code:
    mkdir <DIRECTORY NAME>
    And to create a text file simply use:

    Code:
    touch <FILE NAME>

    james1980, if you still need help with this issue, please start a new thread. This one keeps attracting spammers, and I keep deleting their posts, so this thread will be locked.
