From b3e8da8480876ee40ec15954788b96bd8a812519 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Matthews <52178922+adamsthws@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2024 12:45:34 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Update README.md Update README with Clearer Examples Improves readability and provides more immediate comprehension for users checking filesystem mount details. (Uses `awk` to provide more descriptive output). 1. Modified the `df -hT | grep log2ram` command to include labels for each output field, making it easier to understand the filesystem statistics. 2. Updated the `mount | grep log2ram` command to better display information about the `log2ram` mount. --- README.md | 26 +++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 68ea7d2..dd2a2ab 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -59,14 +59,30 @@ The log is also written to `/var/log/log2ram.log`.
