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?
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!
