Crunch, No space? [SOLVED]

[utqual]

I'm trying to create a wordlist with Crunch about 2 GB but the program returns me an error:

Code Select Expand

chunk1: fprintf failed = 28
The problem is = No space left on device
There are 90 GB free space on that hard disk, where am I doing wrong?

[berghem]

Can you post your command?

/media/Data

there you go, you have only 1,5G available in / partition....
based on command you've performed you are leaving the default path where to locate the dict file, which is "/usr/share/crunch/"..
if you check that location you will find the file "ciao" over there....
you have to give the absolute path where store the file.

ciao!

Thank you ostendali it works ;)
Only another question: I can't open the wordlist with geany, the problem is that the file is too big?

I guess so, you have to wait a bit in order to open a file with the size of 2gb....
what about command line?
if you are just interested to see if the file contains wordlist etc. will be enough to see the beginning or end of file, type:
cat filename |head -20 or cat filename |tail -20
to view 20 line at the beginning and end of file respectively....

or use just less filename

question: how much familiarity with linux you have?

[utqual]

Thanks again
Yes, I'm not very familiar with linux, I use it from about 1 year
Sorry, I know the rules and I know I shouldn't post questions like this but I searched on google the error of crunch and I found something like 7 hits all vain.
