First type pwd, it'll show the present working directory. Then type cd and the first letters of the directory you want to go and then press tab on the screen, it will do the autocomplete, and then just press enter. Bare in mind that Linux is case sensitive.
So if you have saved the file on removable card, then you should type:

cd /media/mmc1

to verify that the file you are looking for is there type:

find . -name wifizoo.tar

if it is, find command will give the relative path to the file from the current directory, unless, of course it is in the root directory of the removable memory card.

cp /home/user/.Document/wifizoo.tar /media/mmc1/wifizoo
cd /media/mmc1/wifizoo

Hope this helps.

Type this:

find / -name wifizoo.tar

and replace /home/user/.Document/wifizoo.tar in cp command with what find gives you.
