If I needed to delete some files and folders using the shell, would I use the linux shell or the truenas cli shell? And what commands would I enter after opening the shell on the console?

Thanks

Linux shell.

The main ones would be cd to change directories and rm to delete files. But make it easier on yourself; run mc instead and you'll be able to navigate around, mark, and delete files without running commands at the shell.

Wow... I really didn't know this existed, it will make it so much easier. And from what I saw here it works on CORE too.
