ubuntu804 As its previous versions, the newer version of Ubuntu (version number 8.04 and code name ) is very easy for the installation. After downloading the ISO file from the Internet and pointing it with one of my virtual machine, the installation menu was there quickly. With its no-brain 7-step installation process, the overall time was less than an hour ( I got some issues with my virtual machine, but it was still cool compared with couple of hours with Windows OS installation).

UbuntuWell, first of all, I am not a Linux geek. But I like Ubuntu when I first touched it.

How to copy directory in Linux with cp command

LinuxIt is very easy for me to forget this command option, and it always take me some time to get it right when I try to copy a directory from one of my website to another website.

And I found out it is always easier when I come into the destination directory and run the cp command.

So to be summarized, I put this command with option here to make me to REMEMBER: how to easily copy a directory from on folder to another folder in Apache/Linux server.

cp -R ~/source-directory-name .

Here ~/source-directory-name is whatever you want to copy from, and please do not forget the period . at the end which is your current directory (A.K.A, your copy-to destination directory).
