Delete Backup Copies of System Volume Information?

Recently I posted here a question re backing up the System Volume
Information folder. The responses convinced me to stop doing it. Now
I would like to delete the SVI folder from the backup media, which is
an external hard drive. I can't seem to find a way to do this using
Safe Mode. Any suggestions? Please post here as my ID is faked.

Thanks.

Safe Mode isn't necessary to delete that. Just delete the files of that
restore point.
Or use Norton to remove it; that will work too.
