cp - Ubuntu problem when trying to copy ISO - Ask Ubuntu
i have dowloaded iso image , trying follow installation instructions.
i have mounted iso using following command:
sudo mount -o loop /home/pinkd/desktop/isofile.iso /media/iso
then when execute next command message. doing wrong?
cp /media/iso/ /tmp/folder1/ cp: omitting directory '/media/iso/'
when copying directory, have tell cp
want copy content. thus, flag -r
(recursive) required, or, stated in comment, use path /*
, means every file in directory (please note, if directory contains other directories, omit them).
tl;dr: use -r
flag, e.g.
cp -r /media/iso /tmp/folder1
