bash: cd: desktop/android: No such file or directory

Question

I am trying to flash 4.4.3 to my Nexus 5.

When I enter this

cd desktop/android

I get this:

bash: cd: desktop/android: No such file or directory

I am looking right at the folder on my desktop named android. I tried the same command with other folders and I get the same error. Can anyone tell me why or what I am doing wrong?

Also, here is the guide I am following.

The correct command would be,

cd Desktop/android

OR

cd ~/Desktop/android

Please note that linux commands are case sensitive.

Flashing 4.4.3 to my nexus 5 w. a custom recovery. I send the command fastboot devices. and get this "dtmfool@dtmfool-Vostro-3400:~/Desktop/android$ flash-all.sh flash-all.sh: command not found" Which I imagine means it did not find my nexus 5? Any idea why this issue is happening? – user288254 Jun 04 '14 at 06:29
what the output of fastboot devices command. Is that it detects your device? – Avinash Raj Jun 04 '14 at 06:35
The output is "no permissions fastboot" – user288254 Jun 04 '14 at 06:37
Then run this command sudo fastboot devices – Avinash Raj Jun 04 '14 at 06:39

I am now running 4.4.3! Your the man! – user288254 Jun 04 '14 at 06:55
Once in the correct directory, the command is: ./flash-all.sh If you don't add the prefix ('./') it will look for a script (or executable) in the directories listed in $PATH. – david6 Jun 04 '14 at 06:58
@user288254 Enjoy your new android 4.4.3 version :-) – Avinash Raj Jun 04 '14 at 07:01
