Linux Data Structure

What is the Xandros data structure?

Hi friends I'm very new to linux so can you please suggest me which will be best software for data recovery from NTFS partition
I am using linux mint 17.1

The local provider has given us a fixed IP so we can have a web server for the car club's domain.

I will be using a Dell 2400 desktop computer with a 1.8 GHz Pentium 4 processor, 1 GB RAM, 40 GB hard drive and a DVD drive.

I want to use command line, not GUI and FTP the club's car pictures from my home.

My only Linux experience was sparse use of Red Hat 2.05 which is now 15 years old and not secure.

If the structure and folders are the same, Can I use CentOS 5.11 or 6.6

Thank you,
people call me Cousin

Hello,

I'm looking for options/tools where I can get server performance counters for Linux OS (having Java application on it). For windows based platforms, we have PerfMon that provides this data. I'm looking for a similar tool for Linux platform java apps. Could you please help me in identifying the best options to get the performance related data like Perfmon?

Thanks,
NR

Please forgive me but I'm a little new to Red Hat (RHEL 5). I'm using rysnc to backup critical data and to a second disk; here is what I'm typing at the command line rsync -rvgal /data/disk1/share /data/backup/share. It appears that the softlinks are not transfered to the backup drive and some of the links point to data not located in the source folder (/data/share). After reading the rsync man page I was a little confused about the L option (vs the l option). In order to ensure that the linked files are moved should I type the below:

rsync -rvgaL /data/disk1/share /data/backup/share

A million thanks,

Hi All,

I have Redhat5.3 running on my machine. I have 800 GB data mounted on /dev/sdb1 partition. When I reboot my machine and after reboot the data is not available in /data folder. I have already use mount command but its not working.

Can anyone help me how to retrieve those data.

Hey guys, what's the best way to try out distros? Do I completely reinstall each time I want to change a distro and if so, would nt that wipe all my data? Or does my personal data , text files etc etc stay on the system and only the distro changes?

My Linux computer comes today and it has Ubuntu installed which I believe is a very popular and stable system but I really want to check out the so evolve distro because it looks fantastic and the reviews were very favorable. BUT I was warned on this forum not to get involved with beta distros until I know what I'm doing.

Does swapping distros erase all data ?

I am trying to process some .csv files with Linux as follows:

Some fields have data with newline characters embedded, like so:

"Bob Smith
531 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, DC"

(I verified the existence of the " via Wordpad. The file is too large to easily edit in Wordpad to get all the data for each row on a single line).

what linux command would I use on the files to get the data in each cell on one line?

I have tried:

1. awk -v RS="" '{gsub (/\n/,"")}1' file > newfile

but the cell data was still being read in as if "531 Pennsylvania Avenue" was a brand new row in the CSV file.

2. Command 1 followed by awk -v RS="" '{gsub (/\r/,"")}1' newfile > finalFile

but that resulted in all of the data in the file being put onto a single line.

3. awk -v RS="" '{gsub (/\r\n/,"")}1' file > newFile

But that result was the same as attempt number 2.

How can I preprocess the file so that:

"Bob Smith
531 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, DC"

is read as a single field on a single line as part of the row it should be associated with, like

"Bob Smith 531 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC"

I own a NAS D-Link DNS-320 running fun_plug 0.7 & transmissionBT.

I just bought a Transcend 2.5 inch 2TB USB HDD which is preformatted to NTFS.

Just wondering whether my NAS(linux) can write to my USB HDD for a reliable storage for transmissionBT.

Otherwise, if writing to NTFS is unstable in linux, how should I format my USB HDD. I know I could format as FAT32... but FAT32 has a 4GB file size limit.
Is it possible to format USB HDD as ext3 (linux file system)... and still compatible/read/write by Windows XP/7/8?

Booted my computer with 2 USB flash drives inserted. One of the drives turned out to be an MS-DOS boot drive. The PC booted in DOS and wiped out the partition table of the other flash drive with my data on it. This second (64Gb) drive had a single 64Gb type 83 (Linux) primary partition (ext4 file system).

Is there a way to recover the data that's on the second stick?

I've been told that all I have to do is repartition it exactly as it was and my data will be there. But I'd like to have advice from the pros here before I start messing with it.

For the time being, I dd-ed the entire stick, as is, onto a blank partition of my hard disk (dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda14). The process completed without errors but /dev/sda14 is unmountable for the moment.

Thanks for any help.
