BlueScreenOfTOM Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Boot with the -s switch to get into Single User Mode, then find the file you want to erase and use rm to remove it. It may be a better idea to use mv to move it to a different location instead. If you have no experience with UNIX shells, try googling it, there's some great resources out there.

Ekylypse Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Though the terminal you can remove files by using the "rm" command. I would suggest using the "mv" command; however, because you may want to keep a copy of it backed up. Make sure that if you not in your home directory that you will have to use "sudo mv" or "sudo rm".

macgirl Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Darwin has almost the same commands as Linux and obviously BSD unixes. But pressing ESC is a some Linuxes thing. Just ry the command you already now, or simply ask for the manual with "man command-you-want", like "man rm" or "man mv" Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/2719-deleting-in-darwin/#findComment-19017 Share on other sites More sharing options...
