I have atrivial problem that i treid to move files from my /home directory to fat32 directory ie /d with ROOt permission but got this as
error

mv: cannot create regular file `/d/New Folder/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch22_:_Monitoring_Server_Performance.html': Invalid argument
mv: cannot create regular file `/d/New Folder/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch18_:_Configuring_DNS.html': Invalid argument
mv: cannot create regular file `/d/New Folder/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch29_:_Remote_Disk_Access_with_NFS.html': Invalid argument
mv: cannot create regular file `/d/New Folder/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch10_:_Windows,_Linux,_and_Samba.html': Invalid argument
mv: cannot create regular file `/d/New Folder/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch24_:_The_NTP_Server.html': Invalid argument

Please suggest some solution as i have mounted fat32 filesystem properly and also provide all the r,w,x permissions

You may have to replace the : (colon) in the file names.

I would like to know what is the reason for it .Thanks i was able to cut and paste as desired

File systems have reserved characters for drive or pathname separators. Unix/Linux reserve the forward slash, Windows reserves the colon character (think about the colon separating the drive from the path in C:/path). Other characters are also reserved.

Please tell me what compiling MPlayer has to do with moving files to a FAT drive?

And by the way, your MPlayer problem has already been discussed, here on LQ, on the slackbuilds-users mailing list, and you can see how I fix it in my own SlackBuild.

this was my next query sorry for any disturbance and thanks actually i always look at your slackbuilds for help thanks a lot

For every new question you should open a new thread. What you did was polluting a thread. Anyone who is not reading this thread, would never be aware that you had MPlayer problems.
