i have a nvidia driver on a usb drive.

How do i navigate to the drive from the terminal?

so far i taught myself:

fdisk -l

fdisk /dev/sdb1

then what?

or is that wrong?

You should see your drive mounted under /media.

If it is not mounted for any reason, try mounting it manually:

mkdir /media/usb
sudo mount /dev/sbd1 /media/usb

Just to be clear mkdir means make directory and you only need to do this once.

Yeah! I should have thought about mentioning that. Thanks for the correction.
