    Default

    You don't. You should only remove those directories IMMEDIATELY after a reboot (assuming no user has logged in during reboot). If a user logs in or you don't reboot then you will trash your system as all passwd, binaries, etc. are hard linked into the virtfs directories.

    The rest of those who have gone before us cannot steady the unrest of those to follow.
