When using the terminal in linux to change directory, it will not recognise the path to my 'shared parallels Folders'. Is it the way I have set up the initial partitioning in parallels to start with? Do I need to allow the guest system have a larger proportion for it to be able to direct and locate my Mac folders using gnome terminal? If so, what figure?
I need my guest Linux ops, to be able to direct to my shared parallels folders.

Hi clareB,
(Re)install Parallels Tools as suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/115835
Open terminal and enter the following commands to view Mac folders in Linux:
$cd /media/
$ls
$cd Host
$ls
"Go through user folder to browse your desired Mac folders"
(OR)
Go to : VM Configuration(http://kb.parallels.com/117287) > Options > Shared > under shared Folders click Custom Folders > Click on “+” to add desired folder as Custom Shared Folder.
Now Follow the path to open Parallels Shared Folders.
open terminal and enter the following commands:
$cd /media/
$ls
$cd Custom Folder Name
And let us know how it goes!
