For future reference, "doesn't work" isn't a good description. That has meant anything from "too slow" to "on fire" in my experience, more detail would be helpful But several problems show themselves on first look:
That's not how if works. You're missing the then:
Code:
if [ "$weevils" -lt 5 ]
then
echo "water buffaloes require immediate feeding"
else
echo "everything's okay"
fi
That's not how find works either. I can't tell what you're even trying to do.
You can't use continue anywhere that's not in a loop, and I don't know what you were trying to do with it there.

hello everybody,
I am trying to find the path of the Recycle Bin. I know that it's a temporary storage place, but it should have a path that we can refer to.
I want to know it because I sometimes use cygwin to work on Windows, and when you delete something with it, it's gone. I just checked... (4 Replies)

Q1. I understand that /usr/local/bin means I can install/uninstall stuff in here and have any chance of messing up my original system files or effecting any other users. I created this directory myself.

Hi.
I'm started to use minix 3.2.1 recently and I'm trying to create a recycle bin for it. I'm kinda struggling on how to do it. I searched internet and I found scripts created for it but I actually didn't learn how to create scripts in college and I'm not sure if I understand them. I just wanted... (1 Reply)
Hi.
I've created scripts for a recycle bin that can list, restore and empty it. I only have the problem of deleting two files with the same name. When I do it one file overwrite the other.

nbdst
NBDST(8) BSD System Manager's Manual NBDST(8)NAME
nbdst -- NetBoot deferred shadow tool
SYNOPSIS
nbdst [-recycle | -preallocate size] devnode shadowfile
DESCRIPTION
nbdst is used during NetBoot to associate a shadow file with the disk image being used as the root device. After the shadow file is attached,
subsequent writes to the root device will be redirected to the shadow file, which normally resides on local storage. nbdst is invoked by
/etc/rc.netboot
ARGUMENTS
The following arguments must be specified:
devnode The device node of the root device, in the form "disk0"
shadowfile Path to a shadow file which will be created and associated with the NetBoot root device
OPTIONS -recycle If a shadow file already exists, reset it and use it again. Otherwise, information written to an existing shadow file will reap-
pear. Reusing a previous shadow file without resetting it requires that the shadow file be created with the same base image.
-preallocate size
Set the shadow file to the given size up front. This forces a reset of the shadow file (like -recycle).
NOTE
nbdst can only be run as root.
