Hi,
The Fedora Documentation has references to the following unit of measurements which are
different
from the more common Kilo(bit/byte), Mega(bit/byte) etc., depending upon context.
Kib = Kibibit [1]
KiB = Kibibyte
Mib = Mebibit
MiB = Mebibyte
etc.
since this was something new for me, I thought I'd like to pass on the message in case
there are
more people writing the full forms of these acronyms. Please do note the differing usage
of
capitalizations.
hth
regards
Runa
