How would I go about splitting a file by section? Imagine the file looks like this:
Lots of text 1
Lots of text 2
[HEY, SPLIT HERE]
[code]....
I want to use a command that would split this file, but look for the text "[HEY, SPLIT HERE]" to get the split points.
Im in a unique situation where a box has a 400G file, on FreeBSD, without thesplit' utility available

I.e. setup the system, if the stuff is in place, you can set the image to IMMUTABLE to prevent any changes to the image. Differences are written to a separated image. So on the next boot you'll see that all the (unintended) changes are gone and the "old" system is up & running again. I run an old SuSE 10.3 on a write-protected SD-IDE-Adapter. Changing and playing with RPMs is a mess due to around 50 changes I had to do to make that work. Is there any option to mount an SD-card as RO and having all the changes written to e.g. /dev/sda3? To make it clear: I thought about something like a RAID-X system, but could not find any description on how to setup a raidtab.

After install CentOS 5.3, when execute yum update in a terminal, with root I had this error:
yum update
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Config Error: File contains no section headers.

I think I have something wrong with the repositories but I'm not sure.

I have a file which looks something like this:

Basically all sections are separated by 10 hashes and I need to somehow only print all lines in the last section (the "some more text" part in the example above"). I tried all kind of things with sed and awk but I didn't find any way to identify the last "section".
I have a huge log file of around 3.5 GB and would like to sample random sections in the middle of say 10 MB for the purpose of debugging what my application is doing.
I could use head or tail commands to get the beginning or end of the file, how can I grab an arbitrary portion from the middle of the file? I guess I could do something like head -n 1.75GB | tail -n 10MB but that seems clumsy and I'd need to determine line numbers for the midpoint of the file to get 1.75GB and 10MB line counts.
i try to run yum update and now i get this error Config Error: File contains no section headers.

I have a huge rar compressed split file archive at my webspace but not enough space to decompress the file.
Is it possible to decompress the split file archive and deleting already decompressed parts on the fly? Currently, I'm using winrar 3.70 beta 2 but it seems that it hasn't such an option.
If there's another way to improve a script that I have created, since I'm not an expert! It works, and it made what I wanted, but it took a while to do it... maybe it can be improved. Here's the background. I have one file, with 244000 lines, let's call it X. I needed to split it in 1000 files, each one of 244 lines. I also needed the files to have the .arp extension. So here is what I did:
Code:
for i in {1..1000}
do
sed -n '1,244p;244q' X > $i.arp
sed -i '1,244d;' X # in this way I deleted the copied lines each time
done

I have a large text file with three columns. I'm trying to write a PERL script that splits the file up based on the value of the 3rd column. So every time the third column reads 0, a new file is created and all the data up until the next 0 is found is written to that new file. This should happen over and over until the initial file has been entirely split up.
ex data:
000
2024
2243
2143
96962871
97972878
000
2034
3034
3352
So with the data above, the file would be split into two files:
data_1.txt would contain
000
2024
2243
2143
96962871
97972878
and data_2.txt would contain
230
2034
3034
3352

View 5 Replies View Relatedstandard Linux installation utilities split the root file-system and the home file-system on two separate but relatively equal-sized partitions? For example, when I put fedora on an 80GB disk, it automatically gave the root file-system 32GB and home 30GB and the swap 8GB of space. However, since my home file-system has a directory with 28GB of files in it, why is my root file-system reading 100% usage? Is the home FS overlaid on top of the root FS? Is there an advantage to doing this? I just made a boot partition (50mb or so), a root partition (90% of the disk space) and a swap (4%-5% disk space).
