Navigate save dialog boxes by typing filesystem paths
Okay...as a UNIX Newbie...I've tried /Volumes and /volumes. My other hard drive is called Macintosh HD from the old days -- there's a space. So I've also tried: /Macintosh HD, /"Macintosh HD", and /Macintosh_HD (although I don't see how adding an _ to a name that doesn't already have it would work?
Terminal basics
[This hint does not apply to terminal operations]
when you type
[64:~] root# /volumes, you are actually trying to execute the path, in this case a nonexsitant such. Try % cd /Volumes instead.
As for typing spaces, you can escape them by putting a \ before them, or enclose the whole of the path in qoutation marks. Use: % cd /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD or % cd "/Volumes/Macintosh HD"
