I'm a total newbie in Linux specially Ubuntu, I'm just asking on how to format a USB using Ubuntu terminal. Hope you can help me thanks!
I am new to Ubuntu, using 14.04 I am trying to format an SD card to make space on it, and it's not working. I tried in terminal:
format mmcblk0
hformat mmcblk0
and it says:
hformat: /home/michael/mmcblk0: error (no such file or directory)
How do you format an SD card?
I want to convert a batch of images, nearly 100, from jpg to png format. How can I do this without renaming them, but instead actually converting the format?
Well the question says most of it...
Gparted reports the used space as 4.86 GB
Nautilus reports used space as 15.1 GB...(via Properties of /media/U_0298_data)
Why is this space used? and who is reporting the correct figure? (...if either)
Is this related to the Trash?
PS. It is the only partition, and is using the entire drive space.
I have Ubuntu 10.04 installed with encrypted home directory. /home is on a a separate partition. Can I just boot from a 10.10 CD, reformat / and install as usual? Should it work if I use the same password? Is there anything else to keep in mind?
