Anyway I can upload such symlink somewhere later on, so you don't have to deal with it.


Yes please I'm a real noob and scratched my head all the day after seeing your YT video, and can't reproduce what you're doing, so it would be very kind of you if you could share such symlink, I need a very lot this feat. for my student. Thanks..

ahhhh...shiiit - first of all sorry pal, I meant to reply to you on YT but as usual my ADHD kicked in and got completely distracted :WTF:
The thing with symlinks is that as I understand they are not real files but rather a hmmm... filesystem constructs so there is no way I can just send it to you and you have to create one by yourself. What do you mean you can't replicate what's in the video ? It doesn't create a link ? or it just doesn't point you to the az01-internal ?

EDIT:
ok, just quickly rewached it and I think I know what the problem is:
In that video I'm on windows but i'm using linux terminal anyway (WSL), if you're using normal cmd shell then the command should be mklink instead of ln but to be fair - never made any links that way, I'll get back to you after I check how does it work.

Ok, I tried with windows, but I got an error message : ln: failed to create symbolic link '/mnt/g/': No such file or directory

g is my sd card (exFAT) so I tryed with a NTFS drive and still the same message, it only works if I input one of my actual PC drive, not with the one connected, I scratched my haed out now, hahah !
