[vox-tech] Removing Files

[Daniel Hurt]

Thanks,

I tried this command sequence and it did not seem to work. Which is what 
I think I should do from skimming these posts in the Gentoo forums:

  I need to read more closely through the forums for Gentoo on how to 
get UTF-8 supported and how to mount a file system with that enabled.  I 
will work on that more tonight when I have time.  Thanks for the 
direction, I think that I am close to a solution now :-)
