Description tomás pollak 2007-03-25 20:12:57 UTC 
When I try to delete a symlink for a file or folder, which is on a FAT32 filesystem, I get the following error:

Error: "Not on the same filesystem" (...) Would you like to continue?

If I click on Retry, I keep getting the same error. It's very strange. How it is possible that I can create a symlink and then not able to remove it?
