    No one has any idea? Even a direction to go in.

  7. [ubuntu] Re: How to convert my usb drive from fat32 to ext3 without formating

    fat32 and ext3 are two different formats for storing files. Changing from one format to another is, by definition, reformatting.

    [all variants] Re: DD backup fails

    I don't know what's wrong, but why are you using dd and not something like Brasero? or at least something with some sort of error checking if you don't like GUIs? Is there a specific need to use dd?

    Re: Why should I bother with math...

    12 is not a magic number. I said a dozen, or so. I don't know an exact number, I never counted. The truth is, the only exact number of things you need to memorize are how ever many first...

    [ubuntu] Re: How to dd clone entire hard disk

    Of course dd finished, it does have any sort of error checking. *smacks forehead*
    So, yeah, those images are junk.
    unutbu is right, find a utility specifically meant for this.

    So, what your saying is that after you memorize the rules, you just need to apply them? I think thats what your saying. I hope so, because its exactly the argument I'm making. If you have been...

    There are things you will memorize in geometry because it's easier (read: faster) than constantly re-deriving them. It's like how we all memorize multiplication rather than...

    Excluding DiffEq, if you're memorizing more than a dozen or so equations, you're doing it wrong and/or you have a bad teacher.

    That seems unlikely, because eventually you will get to the part of the disk where you are writing the archive and start cloning it into itself. :shock:
