copy files to USB media...
by ddenial from LinuxQuestions.org on (#599JJ)
Hello All
I copied one .iso file of size 5 GiB to Pen drive, and after the process completed, I entered the 'sync' command. It took several more minutes to finish the sync.
If I hadn't known about the sync command and had I pulled the USB pen drive, I would have lost the data.
So, is there a way to copy a file to USB or anywhere without using a cache buffer?
Thanks
