Trying To Split a Large File
Trying to split a 35gb file into 1000mb parts. My research shows I should you this.
Code:
 split -b 1000m file.txt

and my return is "split: cannot open 'crunch1.txt' for reading: No such file or directory" so I tried
Code:
split -b 1000m Documents/Wordlists/file.txt

and I get nothing other than the curser just dropps down a line but that's all. My path is
Code:
/root/Documents/Wordlists/file.txt


For what I am doing everything I have found says my first option is correct.
