trouble with patching on vmware

<< < (4/5) > >>

cheesecake:
I downloaded the source from the direct download link in the vmware development platform in the wiki
(http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmplayer/VMware-player-2.0.0-45731.exe0
after this, i downloaded the rockbox image from
(http://vmware.rockbox-themes.org/Debian-4.7z)
which is also in the wiki.
I installed vmware using the installer downloaded.
I then extracted the rockbox image using winrar
Both of these were installed/extracted to the same folder:
F:\Programming
I ran vmware using the .exe file
I selected the rockbox image in the menu vmware provided
Vmware prompted me for a password. I used
Username: user
Password: rockbox
I got in ok, downloaded the svn using this command line:
svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox
I then changed directory to rockbox using:
cd rockbox
I created a build directory:
mkdir Build1
Changed directory:
cd Build1
Ran the configuration:
../tools/configure
Selected iPod, number 21
Vmware said it created the makefile, no errors
Used command in the Build1 directory:
make
Took about 5 min, then displayed a command line.
I entered in:
make zip
Waited a little while longer, when it finished, i closed vmware, and could not llocate the build no matter how hard i tried.
Is that enough???

PaulPosition:
Just for an example, here's how my stuff has been organised :

/home/user  

AlexP:
cheesecake, that all looks fine.

So now, what I don't understand is why the rockbox folder (created in the step svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox) with the Build1 folder you created inside it, no longer seems to be in your home directory.  Are you absolutely sure that this folder is not in your home directory?  If so, where is it?  Can you find it?  - This is all from within VMWare

As PaulPosition says, you do have VMWare image running when you try to access the files in it from Windows, right?

PaulPosition:
BigBambi - That's alright : stuff should be in his /home/user/ folder, not straight in /home/ ... :)

AlexP:
Sorry, yes.  Oops, brain fart.

OK, so in /home/user do you still see everything as in my previous post?
