  1. create symbolic link to a path
ln -s <destination> <symbolic link>
For example, typing the following command in your home directory (~):
ln -s /media/DATA2/guests/public/Lab05 fmric
Create a symbolic link "fmric" pointing to "/media/DATA2/guests/public/Lab05" (assuming it exists). Thus, under your home directory, type:
cd fmric

you will be in "~/fmric", where all the contents of /media/DATA2/guests/public/Lab05 can be accessed.
