Terminal

[sg1]

Hi 

Moving from director to directory I am using cd ~/name of director the
terminal is not recognising  the "~" for some reason.'

sg1 at sg1-desktop:~$ sudo su
root at sg1-desktop:/home/sg1# cd ~/Desktop
bash: cd: /root/Desktop: No such file or directory
root at sg1-desktop:/home/sg1# 

For example trying to move from sg1 to desktop and back again, no luck
so far.




Thanks Craig
