[Peeweelinux] software is for geeks; docs are for nerds

Hi Jim,

Is it possible that you were in the "root" directory initially?  If I remember correctly,
after Peewee boots and you login as root, you'll end up in /root by default.  Unless you
had any "custom" files destined for the /root directory, it should be empty.

cd /, ls -l should show the entire root filesystem.  It seems like something is there --
the "ls" executable works, and it sounds like you have at least a minimal shell.

Regards,

Mark
