N900 filesystem
This article is here to help you find your files you see in file manager but can't seem to find via terminal.
Note: power users should know how to use find, so lets keep this article beginner-friendly!
Location table
| File manager path | Real path | Size of the partition |
|---|---|---|
| root | / | 256MB |
| space for software installations etc. | /home | 2GB |
| Nokia N900 | /home/user/MyDocs | 27GB |
| Nokia N900/Documents | /home/user/MyDocs/.documents | |
| Nokia N900/Images | /home/user/MyDocs/.images | |
| Nokia N900/Sounds | /home/user/MyDocs/.sounds | |
| Nokia N900/Videos | /home/user/MyDocs/.videos | |
| Memory card | /media/mmc1 | Memory cards size |
And if you still don't find what you're looking for, you can try to use find at terminal as following:
find /path/ -name filename*
Path can be for example / but it will give you errors if you dont have Root access. And if you don't give exact filename, remember to use wildcards(*)!
