How are you all??? Hope you are doing well
Please I have a question
What is the difference between raw files in /dev/rdsk and Block files in /dev/dsk files?
I know that there are character device files and block device files and I know the deference in their structure
Also /dev/dsk is used only in mount and umount and /dev/rdsk is used for almost all of other commands
Could you please tell me the difference in their tasks or why we are using two types of device files?
Many many thanks in advance
