Help with line 5?

Post by Armadeus »

5. Browse to the directory where you would like to have eAthena. When you want it in c:/tmw, for example, the command would be cd /cygdrive/c/tmw/ (directory must exist. when it does not you can create it with mkdir /cygdrive/c/tmw/)

It sort of confuses me.

Also, it doesn't allow me to create or put it in the directory I want it in.

Any help?

Thanks. ^_^

Just spamming.

Oh, and the fact that you want to install your server in your user desktop folder ;)

Did you ever use a command shell before?
  • former Manasource Programmer
  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

@Matt Don't see humor in it.

@Crush No, I'm actually unsure of what that is.

I seem like such an idiot. :|

Could you post an example of what yours would be if you were to put yours on the desktop?

IE, what's that?

and there's no need for editing it, I guess. It looks like that would work. :P

Sorry for acting like an idiot, I'm new to a lot of this. :P you're being a great help.
