I'm trying to create the following symlink ln -sv $LFS/tools /
but I keep getting this error message:
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/tools': File exists
I'm having some trouble understanding this error message. Is it telling me that $LFS/tools
exists? But that, I think, is to be expected. Is it telling me that there is another tools
folder in /
? I checked and there's none.
Fairly new to Linux and I'm sure that this is stupid question, but I have been trying to solve this for some days and no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
