/bin/rm -fr directory or if you're paranoid like me, 

cd DIRECTORY
rm -fr *

Removing downloaded Oracle software

I am nervous about doing this since it is Linux versus other OS.  What is 
the correct command to use to remove a directory and all of the files that 
fall under that directory without receiving questions back about whether 
or not want to remove various files within the that directory?   In other 
words, using the example below, I want to remove the 
"directory_to_be_removed" including any files that are in it without 
having to respond yes repeatedly?   The directory being removed is 
actually downloaded Oracle software from CD (but not the location where 
the install of the software itself is actually located at).
 
/u04/db_files/directory_to_be_removed
