You want the Downloads directory for your user, not for root, so: 

cd ~yourusername/Downloads

the ~ there means home directory of, and of course you need to replace
'yourusername' with whatever you login is. 

Kind of dated, but still a lot of good information about the command
line is available in RUTE: http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html.gz
