Symlinking not working with LL3.0

[gold_finger]

I haven't messed with LL3 yet, but can't imagine that symlinking would work any differently on it.  Have a feeling you're probably just making a small mistake somewhere along the line.  Have a look at brief recap below to see if you missed any steps and retry if you realize you did.

Brief recap of steps to symlink:

• make sure you've set-up system to auto-mount the data partition
  
• make folders on the data partition (eg. Documents, Music, Pictures, etc.)
  
• make sure you've deleted folders in /home/mike that have same names as those in data partition that you're symlinking
  
• structure of command will be to symlink from the data partition to your home (see example below)
  

Code:

ln -s /mnt/DATA/Documents /home/mike

NOTE:  command ends with "/home/mike", not "/home/mike/Documents".



If you still have problem, post back full output of these terminal commands:

Code:

sudo blkid -o list
cat /etc/fstab
ls -l ~
ls -l /mnt/DATA

NOTE:  If your mount point for the data partition is not "/mnt/DATA", change to your correct mount point in last command.
