Description:
There is no root confirmation for command (rm /*) What happened with me:- I was in a sub directory of Desktop of arch linux. For deleting all files in that directory i typed command rm /* after enter it deleted all files from / directory without any root permision. Kindly fix this, at there should be root permission for ( rm /* ) command. After restart system it shows rootfs. |
This task depends upon
Your situation can only happen in two cases:
- your rootfs is on a filesystem that doesn't support permissions, vfat for example
- you changed the permissions on /
Also, command line utilities do what you tell them to do, if you can't live with that, you should not use the commandline.
