Hi,

I am learning how to use HISAT2 installed under bioconda.

I am running the following command from an example on the HISAT2 webpage,

$HISAT2_HOME/hisat2-build $HISAT2_HOME/example/reference/22_20-21M.fa --snp $HISAT2_HOME/example/reference/22_20-21M.snp 22_20-21M_snp

In my work environment, I used the following command. I got an error message saying the pkgs sub-folder inside /miniconda3 is not accessible. Any advice on how to solve the problem is appreciated.

hisat2-build $pkgs/hisat2-2.0.5-py27_1/bin/example/reference/22_20-21M.fa --snp $pkgs/hisat2-2.0.5-py27_1/bin/example/reference/22_20-21M.snp 22_20-21M_snp
