General :: Divide A Partition Into Two Parts?

Jul 10, 2009

I am having a big /home partition. I need to make it small and create one more partition from it which will be used for some other purpose. Can you tell me please how to do it?
I searched on google and found some methods which were very different from each other.I don't know which one is good, so, I thought I will ask you experts before doing anything.

General :: Divide Shell Space Into Two Parts?

Sep 9, 2010

On my c shell, I use the alias p ls -lt; pwd to speed up things while switching directories and getting their listings.Things could be much easier if I could somehow divide the space I have on my console in two parts such that the prompt is in the lower part and the top part always shows the listing of the current directory (the directory which I am using in the second part).The upper part needs to be dynamic in the sense that whenever I switch directories using the prompt in the lower part, It should give the listing of the current directory in the upper half.

General :: Use Additional Parts That Are Useable From An Old Gateway Essential?

Mar 18, 2011

My computer that I am trying to use Linux on is a Gateway G6-400 with a 10 GB hard drive and the original floppy and DVD drive. I want to use additional parts that are useable from an old Gateway Essential which consists of: the hard drive, some RAM, and another 10 GB hard drive. I want to use a OS that looks like a Mac (I am thinking about either Ubuntu or Xubutu). It doesn't have a 4 pin MB connector. Does this mean I can't change the power supply on the machine, or is the computer able to use the PSU without the 4 pin connector? How much wattage would I need?!!! And what Graphics card should I upgrade to for this computer? I want to do basic tasks and play these three games: Wizard101, FreeRealms, and Fusion Fall. All of the internet I want to connect over a network wirelessly.

General :: Reassemble Files Split Without Enumerating All Of Parts Explicitly?

Apr 13, 2010

I used split -b 32m "file.bz2" "file.bz2.part-" to split a file and it created more than 50 parts. From googling, the way I found to reassemble the parts is to cat file.bz2.part-aa file.bz2.part-ab > file.bz2, while enumerating all the 50+ parts. Is there an easier way to reassemble the parts wherein I no longer need to list all those parts explicitly?

I'm using Fedora 12.

General :: Download A Single File In 2 Parts To Different Locations Using Wget?

Jan 18, 2011

I need to use wget (or curl or aget etc) to download a file to two different download destinations by downloading it in two halves:

First: 0 to 490000 bytes of file
Second: 490001 to 1000000 bytes of file.

I will be downloading this to separate download destinations and will merge them back to speed up the download. The file is really large and my ISP is really slow, so I need to get help from friends to download this in parts (actually in multiple parts)

The question below is similar but not the same as my need: How to download parts of same file from different sources with curl/wget?

aget

aget seems to download in parts but I have no way of controlling precisely which part (either in percentage or in bytes) that I wish to download.

Extra Info

Just to be clear I do not wish to download from multiple locations, I want to download to multiple locations. I also do not want to download multiple files (it is just a single file). I want to download parts of the same file, and I want to specify the parts that I need to download.

General :: Splitting Text File Into Several Parts By Line Count

Sep 21, 2009

I have a utility that works with files. The utility is crashing at after about 120 files. The input to the utility is a file containing a filelist. I want to cut the file with the file names in it to seperate files containing about one hundred or so. My thought was to determine the number of lines/100 and then use head and delete to create temporary files to run the utility multiple times to prevent the crash. When I tried to create a variable using the wc -l command the output gives me the number of total lines but it also includes the filename of the input file. (873 Filename.txt) I can not figure out how to remove the Filename.txt from the variable.

General :: Playing Broken Video Files (Binary Split Into 6 Parts)

May 26, 2011

Today encoders are getting smarter. They can compress Blu ray similar quality in 700MB. It seems header of video file contain info about frame rate, audio/video encoder etc. which can't be guessed. In MPEG audio , every part of file is independently playable. If a movie is binary split into 6 parts & I don't have the first part then it is unplayable.

Code:
example
ls
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 280M 2010-12-07 20:23 irn2-cd1.mkv
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 50M 2011-05-26 13:09 last-50M-cd2
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 50M 2011-05-26 13:44 first-50M-cd1
file *
first-50M-cd1: Matroska data
last-50M-cd2: data
irn2-cd1.mkv: Matroska data

Ubuntu :: Write A Base Script Which Will Divide An Argument By 10 And Then Use That Argument In Another Program?

Feb 23, 2010

I'm trying to write a base script which will divide an argument by 10 and then use that argument in another program. Since my argument can be a floating point number, I used bc to accomplish this. Here's an example of a simplified version of what I have so far:

<code>NUM=$(echo "scale=25;$1/10" | bc)
#make sure the first argument was formatted correctly

Ubuntu :: Run-parts Not Working?

Jun 13, 2010

I have a very dumb questions regarding run-parts utility. I've created few shell scripts, chmod them to be executable, placed them into one particular directory and tried to run them using run-parts utility like this

run-parts dir_name However it doesn't seem to be working or I might just be missing out something. I have even tried different options like --test or --list - NONE of them produced any output. If I run each of the script manually they all work just fine. Is this is a known bug or somethng ?? or am I really missing out something...how are the /etc/crontab entries then being executed when the run-parts doesn't seem to be working on such a simple case ? ps: I noticed one interesting thing though...when I run run-parts like this: run-parts --list --regex 'some_regexp_patern' dir_name -> the output actually produces a list of the files whose file names match the given regexp pattern .

Ubuntu :: GUI For Parts Of Server 9.10 And Zimbra?

Mar 11, 2010

I am completely new to Ubuntu so please make your answers really simple ! I want to set up a mail server for a home network and have been suggested I use the Ubuntu solutions. I am fairly proficient with Windows programs and even construct databases but I am a complete novice when it comes to command line instructions. Yes, I know I have been spoon fed!

I have been told that it is possible to install Server programs from the Desktop version and that they provide a GUI in most cases. Is that so? I have the desktop version running and up to date but I am unsure what to do next. Starting the Server ISO CD from Desktop seemed logical but when I did I was not sure if it was correct and backed out. I have also read a thread on this forum that suggests the use of Zimbra as a Mail Server, it sounded like my kind of solution so I think I would like to try that.

One last factor. I have an existing P2P network (2 Vista, 1 Mac Book and this Ub' desktop/server) running already which uses the Router for DNS. I suspect I am going to have to do things in a certain order if I am not going to go backwards and ruin the families email and surfing!

Fedora :: Thunderbird - Cut Parts Of Nested Quotes?

Jun 24, 2011

In Thunderbird, when composing a reply to an email that you have quoted, is there a way to cut only part of the quoted material? A typical situation is that you have exchanged a series of emails with someone and your reply has all the old emails from your and the otherperson quoted in it. The quotes are nested inside each other. Often I'd like to chop off all the very old messages and just leave the last few. But the Thunderbird editor seems to make it an all-or-nothing proposition. I can cut the whole quote, but can't highlight a few nested parts and cut them.
