to try to use a file manager as root any way,.. How exactly are you mounting the device? I have no problems using "thunar", as a normal user , after I have mounted the device. I mount it in my home dir, and can use the file manager , as a normal user. No crashes. ===============================

When I want to check on copying progress to a mounted filesystem I open another xterm (or tmux window) and run 'df -h' every once in a while.

+1000000 for SIGINFO. It's one of the best BSD extensions ever.

This is exactly the use case for SIGINFO. Try it (see jggmi's post for how to use it).

Just to make usage clearer for other OpenBSD noobs like me, set status using 'stty status ^t' as per jggimi's post, start dd, then type ctrl-t while the transfer is taking place to display the current status. Last edited by johnR; 27th November 2017 at 12:03 PM. |
