Then you can execute the command.

Thats not going to work too well without Windows.

Terminal is what you were using.  You'll need to use cd to change directory to your sansa's root directory.  I don't know what the path is on your specific system is though.

Why not? cd is perfectly valid command on Linux.

The root isn't a drive letter on unix though, which is why hes going to have trouble with it.

GodEater:
Is there some reason you've chosen to do the install manually instead of using the RockboxUtility to do an automated install ? Then you wouldn't be having any of these issues.

For reference, I believe on a Mac, that iPods get mounted under /Volumes, so in terminal you'll need to type:


--- Code: ---cd /Volumes
ls

--- End code ---

Pay careful attention to what the "ls" command tells you. One of the folders there will be your iPod. Use that name to change into that directory too :


--- Code: ---cd "Whatever_ls_tells_you_your_ipod_is_called"

--- End code ---

Then you can use the mv command from earlier in the thread to rename the directory.
