Firstly, this won't work, since there are a couple of . files in there (.version for example) Secondly, that isn't the sort of command to provide to a newbie lightly. You might try this if you don't like the other options to mv the directory to a different name: rm -rvf /usr/src/asterisk rm is to delete a file r = recursively delete all files and folders that it finds v = verbose so it will tell you what it is doing (CTRL-C if you realise you have made a mistake to stop it!) f = force (ie, don't ask for confirmation on every single file/directory) Use "man rm" and "man rmdir" for more information.
