Hi, I had a directory which contained the following:
ls showed me simple this: "?" with 0 bytes ls -axl showed me nothing So I tried to delete the directory but could not succeed with "rm -R" because the "directory is not empty". I changed to the directory and tried to delete everything inside with "rm *" but also did not succeed. It seemed that the file had no name. So than I did a mistake and wanted to delete the file with no name with the operation: rm -R // This was a big mistake which I noticed soon enough (some files in /bin were deleted). I could repair the damage but what I want to know is what exactly is rm -R // deleting. It seems that it is deleting everything? Thanx in advance Oliver -- ... don't touch the bang bang fruit _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
