Moving Folders To Guest From New Account And Deleting It
Posted: 26 Mar 2015, 11:53
Greetings!
I've Porteus 3.0 running fine on a 2gig flash with lots of files, though my free space is 130megs. I created a non-root jimwg account next to guest so I won't have any root permission problems fetching files from XP or Mint. It occurs to me that maybe I didn't have to create a new account but just could've used guest to stow my files and small videos (doesn't creating a new account take some space/memory overhead too?). I want to move my Document and Picture folders from jimwg to guest via SpaceFM to avoid the tedium of moving files and folders over and deleting one by one but it looks like SpaceFM doesn't have a Move command like other Commanders do. I also don't know the correct procedure to delete the jimwg account once I'm done. I don't want to willy-nilly delete it if I shouldn't.
Any info would be welcome!
