I have to do a simple command, a ln.
The thing is that i got to do it on two different file system and the os don't let me do it.
What can i do ??

Thanks.
 
Got it !
ln -s.
You got to do a soft link.
ln by default do a HARD link.

 
you can't use hard link across filesystems ie.
ln file1 file2
you can only use soft link across filesystems
ln -s file1 file2
