Linux command that creates a new subdirectory
Last Updated on Friday, 01 April 2011 18:25
Question:
Give the exact command that creates a new subdirectory called TEMP?
Answer:
Creating directories on a linux system is done by use of mkdir command.
NOTE: linux is case sensitive. Therefore, temp and TEMP are two distinct directories.
mkdir TEMP
The command above will create a directory called TEMP within your current working directory.
mkdir /tmp/TEMP
will create a TEMP directory as a subdirectory of /tmp
mkdir -p /tmp/test/TEMP
will create a test as a subdirectory of /tmp/ and TEMP directory as a subdirectory of /tmp/test
