With really weird files in lost+found you probably need to use clri to clear the inodes for these weird files. You could probably try something like the following: 1) ls -i and note the inode numbers. 2) boot into single user mode. 3) Do "clri /dev/rda0swhatever 4873928 4287942 37204 ..." where you put in the correct character device and inode numbers 4) Reboot and let fsck clean up the resulting mess. We had this happen ages ago when half of a ccd device keep going away 'cos of confused scsi stuff. David.
