And I agree that find -size -!G does not do > what he wants but find -size 1G > does. Try it and you will see. I quote the OP's original message: find /etc -size -1G should return all files less than 1Giga byte in /etc, but return a list of empty file (size=0) I think it's clear that he wants to find files of under 1Gb. That is not what "find -size 1G" does. It gives a list of all files with non-zero size, which is not the same thing. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
