hi, i am new to this thing so please bear with me. I am trying to determine the free space in my CMOS memory. What i did was cat /dev/nvram > /tmp/temp i tried editting/replacing a single character with another character in temp and write it back by cat /tmp/temp > /dev/nvram my problem is, this command does not exit no matter how long i wait. i have to press Ctrl-C to terminate it. i tried cat /dev/nvram > /tmp/temp cat /tmp/temp > /dev/nvram without editting any characters in temp and the command exits immediately. what happened? what did i do? please help. any inputs are very much welcome.
