为何uboot中会使用 rm -f来删除目录？

[mobilefzb]

我搞不懂为何uboot就能通过…………
请帮我解答下下面红色的部分

恳求解答，小弟我感激不尽

rmdir命令只能够删除空的目录
要删除非空目录
需用
rm -f

[mobilefzb]

但是如果自己输入命令 rm -f 目录 是不会删除目录的，rm的帮助文档也说明了，如果要删除路径 需要 -r的参数

但是uboot里面运行这些却不会出错？这是为何？

楼上的意思看的不是很懂，这个和rmdir有啥关系？

哦 搞错了
确定那个uboot删除的是目录么？
是不是它用了 alias的？
关于rmdir什么的 当我没说
