CentOS-5.7 using fuse-ntfs-3g
I have mouunted the HDD on my desktop as an ntfs filesystem using an external SATA / USB adapter. As root I then used the gnome desktop to move the desired files to trash. Now I wish to delete the contents of the trash folder and the folder itself. This I cannot do. I have tried deleting using rm -rf ./.Trash-root but the command simply has no effect. It raises no error and it does not remove the Directory or its contents.
You say that the disk is formatted as NTFS, presumably for use with Windows, yet you mention deleting the files with the Gnome desktop and then deleting them from .Trash. I'm therefore very confused about how you're trying to delete the files.
He is saying, which I think i also have seen on my USB Flash drive, system immediately re creates Trash folder. He would like to delete it and unmount without recreating Trash folder.
Best course of action is to return HDD to it's PC, boot up and then delete Trash folder.
