xxx@xxxx:Documents$cp -r /mnt/backup/Documents/
I made a directory in /mnt/backup/ named Documents
but when I issue the above command I get: missing destination file operand after '/mnt/backup/Documents/'
What am I doing wrong?
FYI /mnt/backup is a seperate hdd. Thank youlatest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=Ch1ho3_nF7s:VXjnbdJe3TA:F7zBnMy latest?i=Ch1ho3_nF7s:VXjnbdJe3TA:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=Ch1ho3_nF7s:VXjnbdJe3TA:gIN9vFwCh1ho3_nF7s
