To show the progress bar with status while using the dd
command in Linux, you can use the pv
utility. Here’s an example of how you can pipe the output of dd
to pv
:
dd if=/dev/sda | pv | dd of=/dev/sdb
This will show a progress bar with the transfer rate, time elapsed, and estimated time remaining during the copy process. The pv
utility can be installed on most Linux distributions through the package manager.
