I'm sorry, but I just can't understand why I can't find these
bash runs...
/etc/profile
/etc/bashrc

$HOME/.bash_profile
or
$HOME/.bash_login
or
$HOME/.profile
upon starting a login shell...
the standard supplied profiles by default also run
/etc/profile.d/*.sh
$HOME/.bashrc
and this last runs
/etc/bashrc
I note that the commands you're seeing are aliased explicitly in
/root/.bashrc
[root@freescruz ~]# cat /root/.bashrc
# .bashrc
# User specific aliases and functions
alias rm='rm -i'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias mv='mv -i'
# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
. /etc/bashrc

Where is the file that sets aliases?

That was already told very early on, but you didn't notice it!

Looking back, I still can't see it, Kai. I remember being told to look in
~/.bashrc.
Still, the important thing is that I now know where to look.

If you're root (why are you logging in as root?), then ~ *is* /root.

I wasn't - that's the whole point. That's why I didn't find it.

Helped by circumstances. _Normally_, the default install has those
aliases only assigned for root, due to the great risk to the system.
So it would be a natural assumption. As usual "assume" has its risks.

Well, it might have been painful at the time, dealing with this and with the
damage on the box after the kernel bug at the same time, but I've learned a
good deal, thanks to the patient answers to my questions. Every cloud has a
silver lining :-)
