Package: debian-reference-en
Version: 1.08-3
Severity: minor
8.6.34 Dummy files
The following commands will create dummy or empty files:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=filename bs=1k count=5 # 5KB of zero
content
$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=filename bs=1m count=7 # 7MB of random
content
When I execute:
dd if=/dev/urandom of=filename bs=1m count=7
I get the error output:
dd: invalid number `1m'
It should be:
dd if=/dev/urandom of=filename bs=1M count=7
