This is probably easier done with copy/paste in the finder. Generally, the "mv" command does not work accross partitions, though it is possible that it has been extended to do that. If you want to copy the files then use cp -R source destination You might want to add the "force" option which

It depends if you want to duplicate the entire drive or just some folders. The first can be done with one command, the second requires one or more commands depending on their location and number of folders. It is easily done in either case; I have done it many times. Use the cp copy

I know nothing about fastboot but usually the $ means a prompt where you type stuff, not part of the actual command to be typed. Anyway, few things I would check. Where is the fastboot executable file located? If it's in /usr/local/bin then just try doing cd /usr/local/bin then you don't

Hello Erick, Review the install procedure for fast boot. When you did ls did it have executable flag set? The dollar usually represents the command prompts. i.e. this is what you type at the command line. $ chmod u+x /usr/local/bin/fastboot You might want to also try stating the full path in

Hi all, One thing I can't do is use terminal. I can cd, because vo reads the new prompt which is your location, but that's it. For instance, if I launch a py script, I get nothing about any errors or anything read automatically. Worse, I can't scroll up to see my commands and the system's

Tips for using terminal with VO?

One thing when using the terminal and if connecting to other shells on other machines is to make sure the vt 100 imulation is chosen in a set statement. This translates keyboard input correctly to other machines. This has to be done in the mac terminal and on each of any other shells. Many

My opinion is that you use something like VMWare's Fusion and setup a simple Linux distro with Speakup and perform your shell-based activities there. On Sep 16, 2010, at 4:57 AM, Garry Turkington wrote: Hi, Every so often I try moving my terminal-related activities from either a Windows or

Hi Scott, That's exactly what I've been doing, though currently with VMware Workstation on a Windows host. I have Fusion on my personal MBP but may have some issues putting a VM atop my Mac at work. Given the Mac is built atop Unix and VO almost works with terminal though I'd really prefer to

Garry, although VO certainly works better with the Terminal than it has and does a great job for the limited things I need it for, I have not found it to be quite the entire replacement for Speakup and the shell. I hope someone does have other suggestions. On Sep 16, 2010, at 10:28 AM, Garry
