As an example, I was trying to move an entire directory tree = from Cd to hard disk (/usr/src). My syntax was something like this: mv = /mnt/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/source /usr/src. This should = work under Dos, but doesn't seem to work under Linux. Just to make sure, = I added a *.* before the /usr/src. In both cases, I get a message like: = mv: directory has been omitted. And it doesn't move anything. In this = example, I'm not saying that I am trying to do this, although I did try = it before. Basically, what would be the syntax to move a directory tree? = Let's say I created a tempdir for a tar archive and untarred it. And it = created a dir in /temp, therefore the tree would be /temp/package. Let's = say I want to move /package to /usr/local. Also, package has subdirs = that I want to have moved as well. What would be the syntax to move = package to /usr/local and all subdirs?=20 > > ----- Original Message -----=20 > > From: Charles Hallenbeck > > To: > > Sent: Saturday, March 09, 2002 9:47 AM > > Subject: Re: trplayer and realplayer > >=20 > >=20 > > > Hi Igor - > > >=20 > > > I have had that problem too.
