10.1.
usb drive 300Mb, ext3
I have 6 iso image on the root of the drive.
I want to move them to a more meaning full folder, say "isos"
if I do a drag & drop with the mouse (Konqueror), I'asked if
I want to copy or move, I choose move.
sometimes (probably when the total file size is under some
limit) the move is made in a snap. rest of the time, it
works like a copy first delete after operation (quite long
on USB!)
Cut and paste -> copy first operation.
but if, when copying, I abort the operation quite
immediately, the first file was copied (and good, if I can
trust diff), so the move seems to have been done
instantanetly, but not reported to konqueror
the funny is that the file is not deleted from the Konq
windos, but If i try to move it again, the answer is "no
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] file", and of
course updating the window fix the thing.
so why does the normal operation takes 20 minutes when the
files are immediately moved?
can this be related to cache operation or writethrough
operation or similar? (it don't seems so, if I do "remove
safely" the disk is immediately unmounted and on remount the
file is here.
just for curiosity, in fact
