Hello!
Well, I've been looking for this over the wiki, and youtube, but I can't find any good tutorials on this.

I want to get a turtle program to run on my turtle, I've followed a tutorial to get the program on disk (Downloaded program)

Now, I want to copy the program so the mining turtle don't need to be near the disk all of the time to get the program working, then I want to copy the program from the disk to the turtle!
(I'm newb with turtles etc, so I have no clue)

I tried to follow a tutorial but it either gave me "Access Denied" or "Can't find file".

Can someone give me a good tutorial with command help AND shows you what folder to be in?

Thanks!

cd disk
cp <programmname> /

For the copy part.

One big point i do with every turtle now:
lua
os.setComputerLabel("<name>")
exit()

So your turtle will keep it's fuel and programms.

Where do I set it?
I see when I copy the program it's not there when I break the turtle

Edit: I get an error when I try to make it as a program

To make it so you don't lose programs on a turtle when you break it, you have to set the turtle with a label. Just type:

label set miner

This will set your turtle to the name "miner". Then whatever programs you copy/make on the turtle will stay with it when you break the turtle.
