i'm getting old enough (but not THAT old) to struggle these days in this
department.
when i moved that drive to the other machine temporarily, i was probably
thinking:
"must remember to change the jumper back"
"must remember to change the jumper back"
"must remember to change the jumper back"
"must remember to change the jumper back"
and an hour later had totally forgotten :-(
i'm certainly starting to collect some of the commands, now the
challenge is to retain some of the switches too. with a bit of luck,
tomorrow i may still recall that -i is case insensitive for grep...
i did however just solve an unavailable "windows" partition on this
machine with a combination of a single google search, fdisk, cat, mount,
md, ln, ls and joe as editor (rather than kate launched from file
manager super user mode), ie totally non-gui (except for googling). so
for a change am feeling a degree of cleverness rather than totally stupid!
we improve by remembering these things for next time.
