I'm guessing you will use "mv" command to rename, which will move
For_Linux_1 to For_Linux", which is fine if that's what you want.
Another option is to move the files (recursively if necessary) from
For_Linux_1 into For_Linux and then remove the For_Linux_1 directory.
If you want to play it safe, you can archive (tar, bzip, etc.) the data
before you perform the move to ensure all goes well.
