i need to get the hard disk serial number of my machine using a C++ program.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI want to get the Hard Disk serial number of SCSI HDD on Solaris. On linux this is done using following structs and API:
struct hd_driveid hd;
int ide;
ide=open("/dev/hda",O_RDONLY);
(void)ioctl(ide,HDIO_GET_IDENTITY,&hd);
(void)printf("Serial number - %s
",hd.serial_no);
Is there any similar method exists in Solaris to get HDD serial number.
Kernel 2.6.21.5, Slackware 12.0
Code:
root@darkstar:~# blkid
/dev/sda: LABEL="MAESTRO!" UUID="4730-D359" TYPE="vfat"
/dev/hdc: LABEL="STORE1 ver. 2 (overrules ver. 1)" TYPE="iso9660"
[code]...
As you can see, the first command gives numbers like C841-0655. But for the optical disks (iso9660) it gives them not. Neither does the second one. This number is known as 'Volume serial number' in MS-DOS, and is printed on console with the command 'dir' not only for the HDD partitions but for the optical disks too. how to get an optical disk Volume serial number? Notice that this number is inherent to the media (is a property of the media, under any O.S.).
I have a big file full of records like this
1, 2, 4, 5, 6
1, 3, 5, 6, 3
1, 4, 5, 6, 6
2, 4, 5, 5, 5
2, 3, 4, 5, 2
anyway i need to take the average of all rows with the same 1st number(key). i.e.
1, 3, 4.66, 5.66, 5
2, 3.5, 4.5, 5, 3.5
I know this is something awk/sed would be great for, i just dont have enough experience with them to accomplish it, Also, what about averaging those columns together? so, after I output this to a file, id like to get another like:
1, 4.58
1, 4.125
The number of colums to add might not always be 4 either. EDIT: this might be easier to do in gnuplot, so I mainly just need an answer to the first part.
I need to organise an external HDD such that there is no more than 500 folders on it.
Ubuntu's "Properties" pane shows only the file count, not the folder count.
Is there a simple CLI line that will tell me the number of subdirectories?
Is there a way to specify to find that I only want text files (and not binary files)? Grep has an option to exclude binary files, so I thought find probably has a similar feature, but I've been unable to find it.

Intel Pentium 4 processor 32 bit
512 mb RAM
80 gb Hard Disk
I made a 20gb partition on my hard disk and formatted it as fat32 for installing suselinux on it. I changed my boot priority and booted the system from the bootable dvd. The problems are:
1). Message is displayed telling to ensure that cd 1 is in the drive. I cannot make out what this means when the dvd is already in the drive. If I press ok same message keeps coming if I press back following occurs.
2). The installation starts and asks for language and keyboard type. Then it asks me to specify the hard disk and then a message is displayed that it cannot find repository.
How do I find files in opensuse 11.2 without using the command line. I see in dolphin "nepomuksearch", but it doesn't work. Even in the command line you cannot whereis a file like Monday, Monday.mp3. whereis also seems to be case sensitive.

View 3 Replies View RelatedOn a small network i have 3 WinXP computers and i've just installed a two new ones with Win7 pre-installed. As server i'm running OpenSuSE 10.3 and Samba with only one share. As i mount it to WinXP computers all get same volume serial number:
Code:
V:>dir
Volume in drive V is AppDrive
Volume Serial Number is 8CD5-975C
...and all Win7 computers get a diffrent one:
Code:
V:>dir
Volume in drive V is AppDrive
Volume Serial Number is A0D3-975C
We use application witch somehow only works when one/same volume serial number on a mounted drive is used.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI need to find each line in a file which does NOT begin with a double quote (") and append that line to the previous line. I have been successful doing this using the following command:
cat filname.csv | sed -e :a -e '$!Ns/
[^"]//;ta -e 'P;D' > newfilename.csv
My issue is the substitution. As you would expect after the line is appended to the previous line the first character is removed. I need it to not be removed. I tried:
cat filname.csv | sed -e :a -e '$!Ns/
[^"]/&/;ta -e 'P;D' > newfilename.csv
but it just hangs.
Goal:
Input:
"line 1"
line 2
Output with existing sed command is:
line 1ine2
I need it to be line1line2.
After running the following command, I get:
[root@yukiko /]# find / -iname .bashrc
/home/clamav/.bashrc
/home/vpopmail/.bashrc
/etc/skel/.bashrc
/root/.bashrc
But I would like to have a command that prints a specific line by supplying the command with the line number, for example:
[root@yukiko /]# find / -iname .bashrc | getline(2)
/home/vpopmail/.bashrc
Is there such a command on CentOS?

Can we sort the above "data" text, based on "number of characters" instead of "character order"?

I had a dual boot (windows 7 + debian), both of them installed in my internal hard disk, with the GRUB in it. I have recently installed a second linux distro (mint), but I put it in an external hard disk. Now the GRUB allows me to boot any of the three operating systems, but I need the external disk to do it. It seems that after the mint installation the GRUB is now working from the external disk (if the external disk is not connected, the machine does not boot.) �Is there a way to change the location of the GRUB, to the internal hard disk of my laptop?

If you have a hard disk image (including partition table, multiple partitions,...), is it possible to let Linux treat it as a regular hard disk?
By "regular hard disk" I mean I would like to have the image show up as, for instance, /dev/hdx and its partitions as /dev/hdx1,...
(I know I can mount one of the partitions in the image using "mount -o loop,offset=x ..." but I don't really like this option.)

Ubuntu is getting stuck at the loading screen after an aborted attempt to upgrade to 11.04. It's my own fault - the install was running out of room on /, and I, like an idiot, decided to delete some package files under /var/something/archive, thinking they were "old"... I quickly realized they were in fact the new packages being installed... anyway after killing the thing and rebooting it is pretty damn broken (mostly because I can't get networking going so running in dpkg repair mode doesn't do much because, well, I deleted the packages).
I want to copy all the files off my /home and other meaningful partitions onto an external drive so I can just do a clean install. I can actually login to the command line under recovery mode, but I can't get the GUI started. I know it's possible to copy the contents of the partitions to an external
