You can: rm -f /usr/portage/distfiles/* and rm -rf /usr/tmp/portage/* If I recall correclty. Of course, before you run any rm command with -f, make damn sure you know what you are doing and that you typed everyting correctly and understand the exposure. It's like woodworking... measure twice, cut once. This is the stuff that dead operating systems are made of when done slightly worng. ;-) Often, just to make sure I'm where I want to be, i do this: cd /usr/portage/distfiles pwd look at the output rm -f * DAMHIK -- Blaming guns for crime is like blaming a pencil for misspelled words -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
