By active Scratchbox I mean Scratchbox which has been started with
sbox_ctl, which has the bindmounts under user directories in place.
The kernel doesn't prevent you from destroying the contents of the
bindmounted directories any more that it would prevent you doing rm -rf
/dev as root.
Luckily, with udev, most of the dev nodes are restored with reboot. And
things under /proc are naturally restored too (if lost in the first place).
However, before removing a Scratchbox installation, always make sure
that you stop it before uninstalling. The scripts in Debian packages
should take care of this automatically but that means you have to have
the Scratchbox installed from those in the first place.

Jussi

Wow! Thanks, I didn't see that command in the maemo quick start tutorial.
Not sure what you meant by "active" installation, though. If that
means "mounts" active, I would think the kernel should not mess up the
file system even so.
Regardless, I really appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Jeff
