Hi Bogdan,

I may have missed the beginning of this conversation - so I'm not sure what the initial problem was - but I don't think that the recon-all stream creates any symbolic links, so everything you ran should be ok. Have you looked at the outputs, do they look ok?

make_average_subject tries to create symbolic links for some of the surface files. I don't know of a way to stop it from creating symbolic links.

Hi Doug,

while trying to expand the volume of my virtual machine to be able to create symbolic links I started wondering if the way I preprocessed my data with recon_all might be affected somehow by the fact symbolic links were not supported (the data was located on a mounted drive). The only error message regarding this came during the make_average_subject part...

Is there any way to use freesurfer avoiding the creation of symbolic links?

many thanks bogdan
