I am starting to compile a driver for my modem again. I have since erased my hard drive and reloaded Ubuntu Linux. I downloaded the libc6 and libc dev files and installed them, then I downloaded matian-full-20100123.tar.gz. I tried to delete the folder $ -rf matian-full-20100123/ and there wasn't any indication that it occurred. Then I tried a reextraction then $ make all. I tried to do change directories and I got a "no such file or directory." I started with larry@ubuntu-laptop:~$ then did cd: matian-full-20100123/ and I got this message. I also got a message, 'Error:BrokenCount>0' Finally, do I need to enter any particular command before I close out the command prompt? Thank you!
