On Debian Standard System I would like to is change /tmp directory from it's original /dev/hda8 to destination /dev/hdd5
Code:
Disk /dev/hda: 6448 MB, 6448619520 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 784 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
[code]...
If I change /dev/hda8 to /dev/hdd5 and reboot the startx command fails to run.

This is step 2.2:

Open a terminal and change the directory to the download destination.
I'm not entirely sure what that means! I've tried doing the other steps without doing that one and it doesn't seem to work.
I have a web server whos DocumentRoot is:/tmp/wwwNow, /temp/www/fake/ is a directory that contains a series of other files/folders.What I want to do is access the files in /temp/www/fake as if they were in the root directory (/temp/www/)For example:
could either be located in "/temp/www/test.php"
-or-
located in "/temp/www/fake/test.php"
so "http://127.0.0.1/test.php" would essentially call both directories. Is this possible? Whould I do this through apache or through the actual file system somehow? (Like some sort of symbolic link?) I would love to hear your input.
I'd like to mount the directory /var/www/mysite to the directory /home/daniel/mysite, but also have the user of the mounted files mapped from the original user (www-data) to my own user (daniel). So that the file /var/www/mysite/index.php who's user is www-data will appear in the mounted directory as /home/daniel/mysite/index.php and be owned by daniel - and alternatively, if I create a file /home/daniel/mysite/test.php with my own user, it will be created in the original directory under the user www-data Is it possible? If not, what alternatives do I have so I can use an IDE and still make sure all the files belong to the HTTP server's user?

However when I'm installing using "setup" program, I cannot find a part that let me to choose the installation destination.
At "setup install" option, it gives six different installation method like full, newbie, menu, expert, custom, and tag path. But none of them (I cannot find it) gives an option where to put the installation package to.
When I use the cp or mv command to copy/move files is there a way for me to have the destination file assume the same name of the source file, however add an additional suffix.
For example
Code:
Now what if I wanted this...

Do I have to type the destination file out manually everytime? or is there a quick way for the cp or mv command to assume the source file name and add the .bak
We have an rsync cron job set up to mirror all the files in a "..dashtdocsdocs" folder to the same folder on another server. It copies all the files over correctly and deletes any files in the "docs" directory that aren't in the sending directory, but it also deletes any files we put in the target directory's parent folder (..dashtdocs or other subfolders like ..dashtdocsimages) even though they've been excluded in the .rsync-filter file.
Here's our current rsync .sh:
/usr/local/bin/rsync --stats -qPzrtpl --delete --password-file=/var/run/.appprodrsync --log-file=/export/home
/webuser/logs/rsync-extranet-log -FF /export/home/ appprodrsync@appprod::dprweb_extranet/ > /export/home/webuser/logs/rsync-extranet-output 2>&1
[code]....
So for example server A has ..dashtdocsdocs and ..dashtdocsimages. Server B has ..dashtdocsdocs but if I manually copy the images folder over to ..dashtdocsimages, the images folder gets deleted from the target directory every time rsync runs.
A: ..dashtdocsdocs
..dashtdocsimages
B: ..dashtdocsdocs
..dashtdocsimages (<-- gets deleted everytime rsync runs)
I'd like to keep just the docs directory synched and update other folders manually, but they keep getting deleted. It looks to me like it's running a delete-excluded option, but that option wasn't used.
I have the following content on the source directory:
source/foo.txt
source/bar/another_file.txt
source/bar2/and_another.txt
I want copy those files to a destination directory which, after copy, shall look like this:
destination/foo.txt
destination/another_file.txt
destination/and_another.txt
How can I do this? It seems that "cp" lacks such an option
I need advice in getting the original blacklist.conf of the directory /etc/modprobe.d/ because I erased and I don't know if that file could make me have some issues in the future, so if any body can lend me a copy of that file or refere me to some page where i can get it. Is for the slackware 13 32bits distro.

I have a user account (no root access) on a Debian system. My disk quota for my home directory is limited to 250MB, of which I've used 150MB.
I would like to install a program that requires 95MB of space (let's call it prog-5.1) into $HOME/local/bin. Because the source files take up 1GB, I've had to place them in the /tmp directory (to stay under my limit).
Unfortunately when I run the config script, I receive the following:
Code:
The reason for this is that /tmp is mounted in noexec mode, meaning I can't execute code in /tmp directory:
Code:
I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas about running the config script in my home directory, and somehow pointing it to configure the files in the /tmp/prog-5.1/ directory.

A friend working in HPC environments commented me that he had an issue regarding the use of the malloc() function.What issue?He told me that he has had cases in where malloc() instead of returning a NULL pointer on failure, simply didn't change the original value of the pointer it was trying to use for allocation, thus forcing him to initialize pointers to be allocated with malloc() to NULL, so that he could be sure that if malloc() fails, a test for NULL would make sense.
