For the project SamplerBox, up to now I was using /dev/sda1 /media auto nofail 0 0 to have USB flash drives automatically mounted when inserted on the headless computer, see also Auto-mount and auto-remount with /etc/fstab. But this seems not very reliable, for example, when an USB flash drive is removed, and then re-inserted.
I accidentally executed the following command on the etc directory:
In Ubuntu/gnome-terminal, if I run:

Is there a difference between the behavior of pushd/popd in bash vs zsh? It seems in zsh cd, cd- behaves exactly the same as pushd/popd (which adds/pops directory automatically when cd) while in bash cd doesn’t affect the dir stack.
Unix systems usually just error out if they are confronted with a path that contains a symlink loop or just too many symlinks, because they have a limit to the number of symlinks they will traverse in one path lookup. But is there a way to actually decide if a given path resolves to something or contains a loop, even if it contains more links than a unix is willing to follow? Or is this a formally undecidable problem? And if it can be decided, can it be decided in a reasonable amount of time/memory (e.g. without having to visit all files on a filesystem)?
I have some question in closing port, I think I got some strange things.
I want to rename all the files in a folder with PREFIX+COUNTER+FILENAME
Note: I asked this question in superuser about a month ago, but there hasn’t been a reply till then, and the question relates to linux, so I’m posting it here.
