Hi Michael: Here's something you can do within YDL to help you find it. It is the whereis command. Here is an example of how it works. In this example, I'm looking for the file yum.conf and asking whereis to find it for me. Although I don't have a PS3, I do have YDL 5 (for the Mac) so the behavior should be similar between our systems even though your version of YDL 5 is unique to the PS3. This is how to use it: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ whereis yum.conf yum: /usr/bin/yum /etc/yum.conf /etc/yum /usr/share/man/man8/yum.8.gz [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ Explanation: The first line is the proper way to use the whereis command to find the file yum.conf (or any other file). The second line is the response from the system. It is telling us that the file can be found in /etc/yum.conf. As for the rest the system is merely listing other file names which contains "yum". This means you do: $ cd /etc This takes you to the directory etc. Then within that directory you proceed to look for that particular file you are searching for. To edit that file you will have to use an editor you know how to work with. There are lots of editors in Linux: ed, sed, vim, vi and more. It may be a good idea to find instructions either from man or info or from the web itself and look up there uses before using them. As your current purpose is to modify kboot.conf it may be wise to choose the simplest editor -- ed -- just to do that. You can learn the more complex editors such as vi/vim at another date. To get basic help you could do either: $man ed or $info ed Best of Luck...
