Hi Doug
Strangely, the basic mri_concat command now worked, and so did the full one. I think I initially had a "" at the end of my command, just after the file name, which should not have been there; although having tried again with the backslash reinstated at the end, the command still worked. Also, the Analyze in the QDEC GUI now completes without error as well.
It's quite frustrating that I still don't know why it hasn't been working all this time, especially since I didn't really do anything different now (that I was aware of!) and the files were located on the same partition (Virtualbox's shared folder).
Anyhow, thanks again for your kind help!

Hi Doug,
I'm not sure why that does not make sense, shouldn't the input of mri_concat be several to-be-concatenated files rather than a single file?
Sorry, I did not mean to imply that the command line was wrong, rather that the behavior did not make sense -- it should print *something* to the terminal. It does make sense to have multiple files, but it will also work with a single file. I just suggested this to make things simpler.
Anyway, after trying out the command with only one of the files from the tutorial,
/mri_concat --debug /media/Dell/_FS/buckner_data/**subjects/140/surf/lh.* *thickness.fwhm10.fsaverage.mgh --o /media/Dell/_FS/buckner_data/** subjects/qdec/y.mgh/
..the same thing happens, namely it returns to the command prompt, with no message whatsoever.
What could be wrong? As I mentioned, all those MGH files are at the expected path. Thanks again for your help!
What happens if you type mri_concat with no options at all?

That does not make sense. Try using only one input file.

Hi Tudor, Can you run mri_concat from the command line with the --debug option first.
