How do you create a symbolic link for a directory in Linux?

In Linux, you can use the ln command to create a symbolic link for a directory. Here are the specific steps:

  1. Open the terminal.
  2. Create a symbolic link to a directory using the ln -s command. For example, to create a symbolic link named “link” to the directory /path/to/target, you can run the following command:
  3. Create a symbolic link at “/path/to/link” that points to “/path/to/target”.
  4. /path/to/target is the path of the target directory, while /path/to/link is the path of the symbolic link.
  5. After creating a symbolic link, you can find the new symbolic link directory in the specified path.

Please note that you need to have sufficient permission to create symbolic links in the specified directory when creating directory symbolic links.
