  2. mv (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mv_(Unix)

    Using mv requires the user to have write permission for the directories the file will move between. This is because mv changes the content of both directories (i.e., the source and the target) involved in the move. When using the mv command on files located on the same filesystem, the file's timestamp is not updated.

    source mode, which reads files (usually from disk) and sends them back to the client, or sink mode, which accepts the files sent by the client and writes them (usually to disk) on the remote host. For most SCP clients, source mode is generally triggered with the -f flag (from), while sink mode is triggered with -t (to). [ 2 ]

  5. dd (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix)

    dd is a command-line utility for Unix, Plan 9, Inferno, and Unix-like operating systems and beyond, the primary purpose of which is to convert and copy files. [1] On Unix, device drivers for hardware (such as hard disk drives) and special device files (such as /dev/zero and /dev/random) appear in the file system just like normal files; dd can also read and/or write from/to these files ...

  6. FAT filesystem and Linux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FAT_filesystem_and_Linux

    All of the Linux filesystem drivers support all three FAT types, namely FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32.Where they differ is in the provision of support for long filenames, beyond the 8.3 filename structure of the original FAT filesystem format, and in the provision of Unix file semantics that do not exist as standard in the FAT filesystem format such as file permissions.

    A full file reference (pathname in today's parlance) consists of a filename, a filetype, and a disk letter called a filemode (e.g. A or B). Minidisks can correspond to physical disk drives, but more typically refer to logical drives, which are mapped automatically onto shared devices by the operating system as sets of virtual cylinders.

[4] It started as a fork of the GNOME file manager Nautilus v3.4 [5] [6] [7] [better source needed] after the developers of the operating system Linux Mint considered that "Nautilus 3.6 is a catastrophe".

  9. GParted - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gparted

    GParted is used for creating, deleting, [3] resizing, [4] moving, checking, and copying disk partitions and their file systems. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, copying data residing on hard disks, and mirroring one partition with another (disk imaging). It can also be used to format a USB drive.
