i've added event logger and also memory card, and appended a / to the front of all the directories (thats right isn't it? damn i'm so noob i'm ready to slap myself!)

so draft 2 looks like:

Code:
sudo gainroot
rm -r -f /home/user/MyDocs/Private 
rm -r -f /home/user/MyDocs/.images/*
rm -r -f /home/user/MyDocs/.sounds/*
rm -r -f /home/user/MyDocs/.videos/*
rm -r -f /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/*
rm -r -f /home/user/MyDocs/Downloads
rm -r -f /home/user/.bookmarks/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.cache/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.fmms/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.modest/cache/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.modest/images/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.modest/local-folders/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.modest/outboxes/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.skype/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.thumbnails/*
rm -r -f /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/*
rm -r -f /media/mmc1/*
yes? no? maybe? and if there is an empty/missing directory for any reason, such as missing mmc, will it ignore and carry on or halt with an error?

sorry for so many questions guys ur all being so helpful!
