Can you re-phrase this to make it more clear. I don't understand what you want to do. I think you're also a bit confused on what a filesystem is

If you want to go to same place that the File Manager calls "File System", "cd /" will do the trick (moving you to root level of the file system hierarchy).

I didn't really understand the part about "drive 3 , drive 4 ( second drive )".

OK. Open Terminal. Once there type this:


cd ../../
ls

This is your Filesystem. :)

ok. now i understand i don't to type File System
i saw in File System has - bin , boot ,cdrom,dev,etc,home,lib,media,mnt,usr,sys....and more
if i want to cd to that directory i can use command cd /....name of directory
don't type File System .
thank you for everybody
