[ILUG] HD question

[Mark Kilmartin]

Just to be difficult try this.

Do the unlink and all.

But then unmount the filesystem you have mounter over the directory.
cd into the directory.

cd into the directory and do a ls.
This does not show anything.

try to do a mkdir <dirname> where dirname is the same as the directory you
just unlinked.

This gives me the error "cannot create directory `test': File exists"

If I then try to rm -rf <dirname> it removes it.

So finally my question is when you unlink the directory is it really gone
or what??
