    Displaying Directories

    Here's another silly question from an old n00b. I want to move certain files from one directory to another so could someone tell me how to display all the directories under root. Thanks

    Hello - you just type ls -al and that will display all your files / directories.

    You can find additional information about the ls command by going to a terminal and typing:

    Code:
    man ls
