comment Move files to another directory which are older than a date
Why should he use rm? Your command deletes both the log files and possibly the destination directory.

comment SSD head / cylinder / cluster details
For what it's worth, I have used CF cards connected via IDE adapters many times in the past. They always worked flawless and excellent. However, there is one drawback: They have no wear leveling controllers, meaning that traditional operating systems tend to write the same spot again and again and wear the cells out, so you end up swapping the cards possibly even more often. In my cases, I used specifically configured Linux distributions that kept most of the stuff in RAM disks and wrote the relevant stuff back in long intervals, but that's not going to work everywhere.

comment Are disk partition labels or UUIDS stored in the partition area itself or in some other area of the hard disk?
Also you forgot one thing: It's my time I spent to answer a question and I won't waste time to explain things that are easily found elsewhere and it's unreasonable to expect anything else, and I couldn't care less if a reader has not much time himself - he comes here for help, not the other way round. But that's it, I wasted too much time on this already.

@vfclists: This is nonsense. I can make no assumption about the knowledge level of anyone reading the question and if I follow your argument, I would need to explain what an UUID is, what a partition is and whatnot. I can (and do) however assume that the readers are professional able to get missing information themselve. If they are not, they are on the wrong site.

@user: My point was more along the line that the MAC is not immutable, which is an all-to common misconception.

comment Perl programe to list user name under different domain names
Write it yourself. First, this is off-topic here (it's a programming question, see the FAQ). Second, we don't do your homework. If you have problems with specific parts of the program, you might ask on Stack Overflow, but I guess no one there is going to write the whole program for you either.
