The rm command removes links to file. What does this mean?
How then is a file deleted from the
file system?
Answer Posted / usama el far
I think he is asking about this :
- when we remove a file what happens actually that it will
be removed from the inode table && its entery in the parent
directory will be removed too
here what happened that the file's data blocks were not
removed actually from the hard disk but there is no pointing
/ linking to it
