You missunderstodd the purpose of 'rm -r'
This command lets you recursively remove a directory structure
like 'rm -rf /home'.
Please have a look at
'man find'
'man rm'
After checking these man pages you might be enlighted. If you really
cannot figure it out yourself then pleas contact me directly. I will then
mail you the command line.
