I was making a download option in a script but I cant seem to get the command right
Code:
tar cjf /tmp/file.tar.bz2 --exclude="config" ./
My archive ends up with a file-1.tar in it.
when I go to download 11.3 I am presented with the installation medium for a DVD installation with a button that says download DVD. Should there be an option to download an ISO option for a CD installation on this page along with the DVD version? Some of our older machines can only read CD's with a max size of 500+ megs.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have downloaded a few tar.gz programs and trying to follow the instructions always come to the command "make". The result is a printout stating there is no make command. The last program had a "makeinstall" but that wasn't recognised either. I am no a new comer. I have been using Ubuntu for nearly four years and I have only succeeded in installing two programs and that was at least two and a half years ago. Since then I've had no luck whatsoever. Is there anyone out there that can tell me, in simple English, leaving out no steps, how in the h*** I can download and install a tar.gz program?

Idk how to download it then. I hope it isn't a problem that i installed ubuntu on a usb stick. Cause it doesn't have a big enough hard drive and I can only overwrite windows when I have a usb-cdrom player that I get next week.

Anyways, I created an install CD for the newest Ubuntu, and the CD works. I used it to install Ubuntu, but when I went to reboot to complete the setup, it just went back to Windows normally. Then when I booted from the CD directly, bypassing Windows entirely, my monitor displayed "No sync" and refused to display anything until I turned off all power to the computer and restarted into Windows normally.
How can I make it so that it will boot to Ubuntu?
I was wondering how I can make Windows XP the first and default option on my Grub 2. I use Ubuntu 9.10 through a semi-dedicated partition on my second hard drive, if that helps. I use Grub 2 just cause I have a grub.cfg file, and here it is.
Code:
#
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE
#
# It is automatically generated by /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig using templates

If I am using LXDE or another non-Gnome desktop and want to use Nautilus as the file viewer it needs to be launched with the --no-desktop option (so nautilus does not load it's desktop image under the other DE).
I know there is a way to make it so whenever nautilus is launched it will not load the desktop (even if you do not pass the --no-desktop argument) but I do not recall how I did this last time! I believe it was a gconf value. Anyone know what this setting is/how I can accomplish what I am looking to do?
As I checked some online backup solutions I have found information that all of this which I checked have only clients for Win or Mac. But I'm looking for solution with Linux client.As I have read some info on one of the Googled page Linux probably is ready for being an online backup solution as is.So my idea is to create automatic (in the background) backup of my files (photos and docs) with my outside hosting server. I have unlimited shared hosting server with ftp access. Is there any option to built such solution to make backup synchronisation between my Linux comp and shared hosting? What should I get to know to start with such option?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use the dirs command with the +N option. The manual says: dirs [-clpv] [+n] [-n]Without options, displays the list of currently remembered directories. The default display is on a single line with directory names separated by spaces. Direc- tories are added to the list with the pushd command; the popd command removes entries from the list. +n Displays the nth entry counting from the left of the list shown by dirs when invoked without options, starting with zero.
dirs -v shows:
0 /dir1/
1 /dir2/
2 /dir3/
However, dir +n 1, dir +N 1, dir -v +n 1, dir -v +N 1 all give:

In the rpm manual, Print 50 hash marks as the package archive is unpacked. Use with -v|--verbose for a nicer display. But actually, there're not enough hash marks when I'm installing a package. About 44 hash marks there...Well, I just want to know where the `50 hash marks' are.

I tried to install gfortran on my computer. When I extract the tarball, I forgot the '-C' option of the command 'tar', which should be added, according to the instruction of installation.
That is to say, I wrote in the mp directory:
Then, the tarball creates a '/usr' directory under '/tmp' directory, and it contains only a /local directory, which contains only a /gfortran directory.
The thing is, when I modify the name of this directory, for example, from /usr to /usr-modi, I found that the name of the directory /usr under the root directory is also changed from /usr to /usr-modi.
How can I delete this annoying /usr directory under /tmp, without tragically affect /usr under the root directory?
