I am following the directions @ enter link description here; however, I am still confused about a few things. I'm new & need a bit extra direction so stick with me! ;-) The following is the script from my terminal:

christy@ubuntu:~$ ls
Desktop    examples.desktop     install-tl-unx.tar.gz  Pictures  Templates
Documents  install-pkgs.log     libnautilus-gksu.so    Projects  Videos
Documents  install-pkgs.log     libnautilus-gksu.so    Projects  Videos
christy@ubuntu:~$ cd/
bash: cd/: No such file or directory

How do I tell what is in which directory & how do I navigate the directory. I know I must be leaving out something simple. Thanx!

Chris
