ls -s /var/run/media/<user> ~/mymedia This doesn't work, John. It should read "ln -s.........." and not "ls -s....." :-) .
And there is one other "catch" :-( . The directory MEDIA does NOT exist but is only created in /var/run/ when one plugs in a memory stick or inserts a CD/DVD. Naturally, the /<user> subdirectory in /var/run/media doesn't exist until a device is plugged in by the <user>. For the symlink to work one must then first manually create the /media/<user> in /var/run . That is, you will be ending up with '/var/run/media/<user> . I used the old faithful mc to do this. (And in keeping with the practice of old when intelligence was not at a premium, I symlinked this to the (main) /media directory and not to ~/mymedia as you suggested.)
