title: Cannot remove directory from command line
body: <p>I must be doing something wrong. I am trying to delete the 'mounts' directory and all its contents. Any ideas??</p>
  
  <pre><code>dfmmalaw@portfolio-php-:~ $ ls 
  lib/  mounts/  workspace/
  
  dfmmalaw@portfolio-php-:~ $ rm -rf mounts
  rm: cannot remove ‘mounts/deanfriedlandcom2’: Is a directory
  
  dfmmalaw@portfolio-php-:~ $ umount mounts/deanfriedlandcom2
  umount: /home/ubuntu/mounts/deanfriedlandcom2 is not in the fstab (and you are not root)
  </code></pre>
