Yes, that works ok. But now try the following: cd /home ln -s ../tmp tmp (I suppose you have a /tmp...) cd tmp You should get a "No such file or directory" error here. If you don't, then my system is broken and I would like to know how to fix it. :) The problem seems to be that the ../tmp in the link is interpreted as pointing to (in your case) /hdd2 and not to / as I was expecting. Please let me know the result of the above commands. Thanks. -- Ruben Leote Mendes - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
