I'm trying to copy some files off my hard drive onto my external USB drive.
I had tried this with Konqueror and got the message, "The protocol died unexpectedly."
I then tried with a straight copy and got the message below...

Here's the directory listing

How can I move these files off my hard drive?
How's your USB disk formatted? Most probable it is FAT32. FAT32 has file size limitation of 4GB. Your files are larger. Either compress them before copying or use "split" to make smaller chunks. -- Mark Goldstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
