rmdir trm cmd
 

Im trying to rmdir in the terminal. Im root so I would think it would let me however it tells me the dir is NOT empty. I wouldn't think this would hold me up.

How do rmdir so I dont have to go through each dir and rm each little file...?

-r will remove all contents recursively
-f will force without prompt for each file

rm -rf /foldertoremove

Im getting "invalid option" for -rf. Why is this?

it's rm -rf /folder

sorry about that

It worked! Thankyou.
