Copy files to USB drive. How to verify?
by ddenial from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5H349)
Hello All
I'm backing up my data into a USB external hard disk in the gnome terminal. After the command finished the job, I entered the 'sync' command several times.
How do I make sure all the files I copied using the cp command have been completely copied to USB drive and that they are not in cache/buffer?
Thanks
