Other Help Topics :: Dumb Question But...



Oh!  Okay, that's much better.  Last question, once I mount, how do I view...?

-Str1d3r :p
Right-click on your desktop. Choose "enhance" from the menu.
Desktop icons will appear.
Double-click on the "Emelfm" icon.
This is the graphical file manager for DSL, kinda like Windows Explorer but in Linux.
The double dots   ..    will allow you to move up one level in the directory structure.
When you are at the top level ( ..  no longer does anything any more), then double-click on the /mnt directory
Normally, you can mount your C:\ drive by selecting the hda1 icon with your Mount.app window (lower right corner of the Enhanced desktop) and then push the button to mount it.

Otherwise, you can mount it while inside Emelfm window:
Once you are inside the /mnt directory, Right-Click on the hda1 directory. Then choose "Mount" from the menu.  This means that /mnt/hda1 directory is the "Mount Point" for your C: drive.

After you mount the hda1, if you double-click on the hda1 folder, the contents of your C: drive should appear.

Good Luck.
Okay, well I mounted.  But now, when I click on it, Linux says I don't have read privileges.  What happened?

-Str1d3r :p
Oops..okay, I figured out to type "sudo ls /mnt/hda2 to get my HD dir listed...but I have to type sudo every time.  And when I type "sudo su" like the faq says, it asks for a pass...so I give it one.  Then is says my pass is bad.  Huh?  Help? Please? :p
You have to set a password first with "sudo passwd". Then just type su and enter your password.
