Hi M,
the confirmation stuff is set through aliases which are loaded from your
~/.bashrc:
# .bashrc
# User specific aliases and functions
alias mv='mv -i'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias s='cd ..'
alias d='ls'
alias p='cd -'
alias rm='rm -i'
Remove or comment out (using #) the aliases you don't want, log in again,
and the confirmations are gone.
