A few days ago, I did install on my MK2 the menusort hack. This is working fine (thanks). But now I forgot where did I put this file on my Empeg. Is there a possiblity to find this file? I mean a command like find "menusort".

Sorry for this beginner question! Don't hit me!

Thanks...

find / -name menusort -print

but the command is not in minimum Linux that is by default installed on empeg.

Hmmm....

Try this:

cd /
ls -lR | more

Then, from the --More-- prompt, type /, then string you are looking for. More will reposition to the first line containing it. n will find the next. Since default more does not seem to support back scrolling (although help screen says it does), you will not see in which directory you are. Use = to see the linenumber, then redo ls -lR | more and scroll manually to within screen or two of that line to see the directory.

Ufff. Anybody has a simpler idea? Apart from installing Debian distro, which I recommend.

Ufff. Anybody has a simpler idea?

ls -R / | sed -e/:$/h -eG -e's/\n/ is in /' | grep menusort

I used this question as an excuse to find out more about sed.

Anyway, there aren't that many directories on the empeg by default. Systematic use of "cd /", "ls", "cd dirname", and "cd .." will work too.

Brilliant! Now I will have to go and read that sed man page (as I don't understand your script)...

After a few seconds I got the following info on my Empeg:
