So I have done this before, but for some reason after I factory reset my computer it fails to work. I followed directions. I first created a file named it CIS117KEY. Then opened a terminal. Per my instructions I then enter ssh-keygen -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa -t rsa and press enter twice skipping over the passphrase. After I get the error below.

Generating public/private rsa key pair. 
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): 
Enter same passphrase again: 
Saving key "~/.ssh/id_rsa" failed: No such file or directory

I feel it wants me to create a file but I did. Its the file I opened to get to the terminal "CIS117KEY" I also said screw it at one point and typed in a phrase still same issue. Can someone please help walk me through this ?
