First, that's a question I've never encountered before, and I really
don't know what you're asking. But Google seems to, and one answer I got
was to issue a <b>df -T</b> command to get filesystem information. <br>
<br>
So, here's the response I get on my <b>desk top</b>, with the USB HD (/media/tomc/data) mounted:<br>
<br>
tomc@LDT:/$ df -T<br>
Filesystem Type 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on<br>
udev devtmpfs 1530592 0 1530592 0% /dev<br>
tmpfs tmpfs 309092 5256 303836 2% /run<br>

<br>
And on my <b>netbook</b> (USB HD is not mounted):<br>
<br>
tomc@LT:~$ df -T<br>

Something I might mention which could have bearing. For professional
reasons, I need to have at least my main personal account directory
encrypted. So, I took the encryption option offered when installing
Lubuntu (I had been running Kubuntu). But I didn't get the same response
for both desktop and netbook. (Recall that with the netbook I am NOT
having this filelength copy issue).<br>
<br>
I neglected to take notes, and cannot reliably recall, but on one of the
installs I WAS able to encrypt the whole disk. On the other install,
the installer refused to do that and would only let me encrypt /home.
Can you tell, looking at the above, which machine has only /home
encrypted?<br>
<br>
I hope this is the information you need. Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.<br>

What type of file-system was originally copied to the USB
hard-drive, and what type of file-system are you copying it to? <br>

<div dir="ltr">I'm baffled by a problem which I'm having on my

<br>
In trying to copy several large directories from a backup USB
harddrive, I get a refusal to copy on the Dell due to a number
(several hundred) of filenames' being too long. <br>
<br>
I NEED to complete this directory copy. Can anyone advise me as
to how to resolve this problem?<br>

Thanks!<br>
