These aren't subroutine calls, there commands. There's no "(1)" used in the command syntax. I thought you said you wanted to update the prebinding for the entire system? If that's what you want to do, I already gave you exxactly what you need to type in at the terminal prompt. The "redo_prebinding" only affects the named file (full path name of file), and you didn't name a file. Did you read the man page, i.e. "man redo_prebinding"?iBunny said:
Do you have a new terminal prompt? If so, it should be done. You can also start Activity Monitor from the Applications->Utilities folder, look at *all* the processes and see if the prebind command you started is still in the list. It normally doesn't take more than a few minutes to run (prebinding, that is).iBunny said:
The "-root" option allows you to specify a directory to start in. You don't need to specify it, since the default is "/" or the "root" directory, i.e. the top of the directory tree. Unix has no concept of drive letters like DOS, so there is no "C:" In Unix "/" == "C:\". If you have multiple disks, their partitions will be "mounted" on a "mount point" under the "/Volumes" directory. This includes removable media like CDROMs, DVDs and firewire drives. You can see what's mounted on your system with the "mount" command. You can see what's mounted and disk space with "df -k", the "-k" gives the space number in 1K units, rather than the 512 byte default.iBunny said:
No problem. There's certainly lots of interesting stuff to learn. Unix/Linux is just soo much more powerful and elegant than Windows. Do some reading, and I'm sure you'll pick it up.iBunny said:
