Date: 16 May 1996 20:55:27 GMT Organization: Cornell University Lines: 12 Message-ID: <4ng4nv$dvj@tuba.cit.cornell.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: 128.253.232.66 X-Newsreader: NN version 6.5.0 #6 (NOV) Does anyone know of a reason why a directory might vanish into thin air ? I had a directory under my /usr filesystem with a bunch of packages that I ftp'ed. After installing some packages (and aborting one package installation midstream, which may have had something to do with it) I suddenly found I could no longer cd to the directory or find it in any way I know of. That I find rather weird. Rohan. oberoi@cornell.edu
