Cannot take away methods folder from a defective set up of Mac Catalina

This set up was made to the /Volumes/Native disc, and it failed miserably not permitting me to reboot correctly. I used to be then ready to return to a Mojave set up, and continued with a profitable set up from an USB drive to the /Volumes/SSDdisc, and I am now attempting to cleanup the rubbish from the opposite set up.

I’ve learn and tried varied suggestions and methods like including the terminal to have Full Disc Entry (I’ve added that to /bin/rm, /bin/zsh and /usr/native/bin/bash as properly), and I’ve run csrutil disable a number of occasions from Restoration mode. I’ve additionally eliminated the ACL entry stating: 0: group:everybody deny delete from the folders. I am nonetheless not in a position to take away the folders: Functions, System, Library, Volumes and Customers.
