how do i delete a directory in junos

hi all,

how do i delete a directory in junos? I tried file delete /cf/var/tmp/junos-10.0R1.8.

basically what happend is when I was trying to install JUNOS10 it failed on my first verification, I made my changes etc and ran it with no-verification and now JUNOS10 is installed but it kept the old installation files and directories in my TMP folder.

Its taking up roughly around 400MB how would I remove this?

Thanks

Issue a "start shell" command from the operational mode prompt to drop back to the UNIX shell. Then you can use regular Unix commands like "rm /dir/file to remove whatever.....

Shell command 'rm' will remove files. For directories use 'rmdir'.

OK rm -r <directoryname> then. Removes the dir and content of it. rmdir fails on none empty dir.
