I have a few files that are giving me (root) a permission denied message when trying to delete them. How can I remove them successfully. I'm not sure if they are damaged (suspect they are), I am using reiserfs, what arguments if any are required to fsck.reiserfs to check and report if they are damaged?
It is a "typical" problem with reiserfs. You have to umount the partition, then fsck it. If it is the root partition, that means booting from the install CD/DVD and use the rescue system. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFEpZ6GtTMYHG2NR9URAu84AJ9fZBQ+Fi7HBZBmCw/2WrzNOH1pxwCeLUS4 XDQHCk4rc20YhIAZchM18Eo= =3hP0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
