Because the executable file mythconverg_restore.pl is in your home
directory (and thus NOT in a directory within your PATH) you need to
explicitly state where the file is, so:

./mythconverg_restore.pl .......

or

/home/daryl/mythconverg_restore.pl ....

should both work.

This is because you have missed off the 'l' from 'daryl' :-)


daryl at trieli:~$ cd Home

1) Linux is case sensitive and 2) the 'home' directory is located off the
root '/', so:

cd /home

will work, as will:

cd /home/daryl

Also - the '$' prompt indicates that you are already in your home directory
('/home/daryl')

Hopefully that will get you going along the right lines.
