[SOLVED] alternatives to dolphin file transfer?

Postby arminius » Jul 24th, '12, 09:02

I keep trying to transfer a massive multi GIG folder, and near the end Dolphin crashes and comes up with the bug report.
is there any other linux software I can try to move the folder around with?

(It might be useful to know what the bug report says.)

Try Midnight Commander. You need to run it from a terminal:
Code: Select all
mc

If you don't have it installed, the package is named mc.
