Errors
Read-only file system
rm: cannot remove 'file.txt': Read-only file system
This can be occurred by a filesystem that has been mounted read only. Check
mount | grep /dev/[device]
and look for ro in the part between the ( ) 's. If it is there and not rW then the filesystem is mounted read-only
Possible solution: add the --read-write option to the mount command
An other cause can be a faulty SDcard
Permission denied
rm: cannot remove 'somefile': Permission denied
You need the “w” permission on the directory the file is in because you write to the directory, not to the file
Does not remove
rm -f "/home/user//somefile.*.txt"
Remove the “ 's (the double quotes)
