Ok, maybe if I give you a little more detail, it may be a little more easer for your explanation or analysis.

In order for me to put linux on my iPod I need to input this code:

# backup the firmware 
 dd if=/dev/disk3s2 of=backup_fw
 
 # extract the apple firmware 
 make_fw -o apple_sw.bin -e 0 backup_fw 

 #merge in the linux kernel with the Apple firmware 
 make_fw -o my_sw.bin -l linux.bin -i apple_sw.bin loader.bin 

 # copy it back to the iPod 
 dd if=my_sw.bin of=/dev/disk3s2

But when when I get to the extraction of the apple firmware part I get an error message that says:
"-bash: make_fw: command not found"

I was told The "command not found" error is probably due to a problem with my PATH environment. They then said to try this:

PATH=$PATH:. 
export PATH

but I have no fekin' clue how to use this. Do any of you guys know how to use this code, and maybe help me complete the installation
