i am surprised i couldn't find any directories in /usr. I have been trying to run pkgadd and it kept giving me "bash: pkgadd: command not found". What can i do?

that's not possible, you did something wrong during installation.

Really this has been my experience.. and a surprising one at that because all i did was to follow handbook instructions up to the one you gave me in a previous thread

$ cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.32.3
$ make mrproper
$ cp ../linux-2.6.32.3.config .config
$ patch -p1 < ../cruxppc-logo.diff (optional)
$ make oldconfig
$ make menuconfig
$ make all
$ make modules_install
$ cp arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pmac /boot/zImage
$ cp System.map /boot/System.map


anyway what do i do now? do i copy the folders manually from the cd.. how can i get going fast?

The best solution is to re-install your system to be sure that all is really ok.

One thing you should remember is that CRUX is targetted at experienced users who don’t mind doing some work themselves, so if you’re an completely new to Linux-based operating systems or want a zero-effort distribution, CRUX is not the optimal choice.

I don't mind at all..I'm actually working with linuxmint as my main os on my other laptop.. and i have been used to tweaking. My only fear is getting a timely support. So far you've really been of great help.
