/usr/local: No such file or directory

You're getting this error because the directory /usr/local does not exist. I don't have a Snow Leopard install in front of me right now, but it's entirely possible that this directory doesn't exist by default -- nothing would be installed there in a stock install.

    I have a new mac mini with snow leopard.

    When I enter the following into the terminal: cd /usr/local I get this error message: -bash: cd: /usr/local: No such file or directory

    I am not sure why?

      The directory does not exist. Why don't you believe the error message? If you need it, create it. sudo mkdir /usr/local

    /usr/local doesn't exist by default on OS X.
