I have an empty share but cannot delete via webGUI or with rmdir:

root@Rack:/mnt/user# ls -l boot/
total 0
root@Rack:/mnt/user# rmdir boot
rmdir: failed to remove `boot': Directory not empty
root@Rack:/mnt/user# 

 

I entered "rm -r boot" and then the webGUI allowed me to delete the share.

what you should have typed is:

cd /mnt/user

ls -al boot/

 

files and directories named with a leading period are not listed unless you use the "-a" option to "ls"

 

Highly likely there is no bug, just a "hidden" file or directory was in the boot directory.

I ran into the same thing with those darn .ds_store files my MAC put everywere.

 

I ran the cleanup script for those in unMenu.
