    Quick Question

    I messed up my current computer with something I installed so I got the Linux System Rescue CD. I popped it in and mounted my Windows drive using ntfs-3g. I was wondering how do I access the "Program Files" folder? It is at:

    "/mnt/windows/"

    My C: drive is there. That's where I mounted it to. But if I type "Program Files" it says that there isn't a folder called "Program."

    How do I access it through the console. I really need help with this! Thanks much.

    hi,


    after mounting your windows drive you can access "Program Files" two different ways
    1) you do
    Code:
    cd Program\ Files
    2)
    you do
    Code:
    cd Program
    and then press tab twice
    Linux and me it's a love story

    Dude! You rock! Thanks. Just have a couple more questions. I'm trying to delete a folder called "ESET" I am at "/mnt/windows/Program Files" this is where "ESET" is located. What is the delete command?

    Nevermind I got it!

    rm -r

    Thanks khafa!

    I would suggest you to check linuxcommand.org too.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
