Thank you, I am still in a fog in terms of simple things like symlinks. What you want is to end up with a link in the linux directory called kernel-source-2.4.18 that links to /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18. So how should that be said?
[ ]1.d create a symbolic link to kernel-source-2.4.18 from /usr/src/linux $ ln -s /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18 /usr/src/linux Best Wishes!

A directory with the name "linux" exists, as it was created in 1.b. and thus a symlink with the same name can not be made at the same level. Instead you will wind up with a symlink in the linux directory called kernel-source-2.4.18. -- Jamin W. Collins -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
