hi, i am having some trouble of removing a file (which was written) during a crash of suse 9.0. when i am trying to access that file (either by ls or rm or what ever) i am being told that lstat does not have the necessary rights to do so. su-ing to root does not help either. what i can do thou is to move the parent folder (but not onto an other mounted filesystem). any ideas how i can get rid of the file? thx ciao robertj -- Robert Kuzelj Gaissacherstrasse 7 email: robert_kuzelj@yahoo.com 81371 Muenchen tel: 0177/5302230 the trinity of desirables of (software) architecture: Firmitas, Utilitas, Venustas (marcus vitruvius 20 BC) strength, utility, beauty -- Robert Kuzelj Gaissacherstrasse 7 email: robert_kuzelj@yahoo.com 81371 Muenchen tel: 0177/5302230 the trinity of desirables of (software) architecture: Firmitas, Utilitas, Venustas (marcus vitruvius 20 BC) strength, utility, beauty
