Sure... its not the right place
Not the right place? NOT THE RIGHT PLACE? It can never work, bugger "not
the right place".
but please not be such personal. That
will help noone.
Crap. People without knowledge of the basic OS on which they're working
shouldn't be allowed near a computer - witness the thousands of messages
our main site is turning away from cracked bot machines per week. There
are licenses for competence in all sorts of things that can harm other
people, why not one for computers?
OP's machine came with comprehensive documentation and he can not be
bothered to read *any* of it. Well, he better had.
BTW, maybe this is helpful:

Who's said that OP is using Linux? If he is, then a link to FHS might be
better:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html
But if he's using BSD or any other Unix variant, then both of the above
links will be useless.
The trouble is, that people with Windows mentalities are taking to other
systems without the motivation either to find out about them or even
consult wikis (the simplest form of acquisition of any knowledge) or use
search engines. They should be required to take a test before being let
loose on the Internet.
Everybody who's given OP useless advice up to now should be required to
take that test.
