I don't run Suse, but that's what Debian does. It's odd that they would put Nano in /usr/local/bin, as that usually isn't in the path. Try man ln. Frankly, I find it easier to do links with Midnight Commander, sometimes called mc. NetOpsCenter wrote: Aloha! I run FreeBSD here in Hawaii, but I added the LUAU list to this email.

Also, you may find it easier to set your PATH to include /usr/local/bin. Antonio Querubin whois: AQ7-ARIN ___ LUAU@lists.hosef.org mailing list http://lists.hosef.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luau
[LUAU] HOSEF 51, Landfill 0 - Clonezilla announced the Winner
Sunday's intstallfest, so to speak, was pretty impressive thanks to some great FOSS tools. Consequently, 50 Elementary students in Isabela(1) will soon be learning and creating with donated computers from Hawaii. Pictures were taken, and they will be posted to the website soon. Over the course of the day a garage was transformed into a computer workshop. A driveway was transformed into a loading and shipping zone. With computers from JALPAK Hawaii(2), boxing labor from the the group sponsoring the shipment(3), and a little HOSEF magic, it all worked out. We pxe booted Clonezilla(4) from DRBL(5) to image the workstations. It took about 5 minutes per computer to install a complete desktop operating system with education applications, an office suite, creativity tools, and more. We imaged them in batches of 7, but we could have done all 50 at once if we had the space. Seriously. We installed Edubuntu.(6) In the past people like Time Newsham have labored pretty tirelessly to help with a mass install using Systemimager. It never really worked well with GRUB due to the limitations of the application. Vince appropriately described it as a glorified rsync system. Nonetheless, those computers were completed and flown by the Air Force to an orphanage and women's shelter run through BYU in Cambodia. In refurbishing and donating computers back when we did stuff at McKinley, we would install them by hand (using a CD) one by one. It created good learning opportunities, but it was not conducive to JIT management. Now we can JIT the you know what out of a pretty fair number of computers. Sometimes we sounds a bit misleading. Those of you who have come around for a while know that I have had a pet frog for years, and that the two of us combine to be we pretty often. In the case of Sunday, it was Roland (a real person) and myself. That's all, and that was plenty. If you ever decide to come around, don't worry that you will be intruding on some intricate process. I have, however, refined our ability to transform a previously discarded computer into a fully functional workstation within 20 minutes. The more of you who I can encourage to become part of the we(7), the more computers we can save. --scott (1) Pis-Ba-Kal Elementary School (Pissay, Angadanan, Isabela) (2) http://www.jalpak.com/ (3) Hawaii has a sister relationship with the Province of Isabela and Governor Grace Padaca. Many first generation Filipino families sponsor the shipment of these computers. This project was part of The Task Force Aloha Isabela - Hawaii Sisterhood.
