Default Accessing /media/internal from xecutah

Hi all,
Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere (I have looked but with no success).
I was wondering if it was possible to access the normal touchpad usb partition (/media/internal) from within a xecutah shell?

Any advice is greatly appreciated,

Baldric

Once you open up xecutah, just do cd /media/internal then ls to list the contents and see the folder list

Now that's weird. I'd done that several times in different shells and that folder was empty, hence me posting the above message in case I'd setup something wrong. After I tried o e more time based on your comment, it worked.

Thanks for your help,
Baldric

Ok, problem still exists. How do you access it within the Ubuntu Chroot. In a normal non-Chroot it can be seen, but not within the Chroot.

Any info appreciated,
Thanks

Answering all of my own problems today - sorry for the many postings.

Under the normal shell, you can copy into the ubuntu chroot partition by pointing to /media/ext3fs/ubuntu-natty-chroot/ followed by the folder you want to copy to.

Linux noob here. What command(s) did you use to access the webos media? When I navigate to /media in chrooted Ubuntu, no folders show up.
