Fsck say nothing. How can I remove this entries? You problem is that there is a mode flag that can get set, usually on the kernel to prevent removal and so forth. Use the "ls -lo" command to see if the "schg" flag appears. If it does, you will need to use the chflags program to remove this flag. I hope this helps you! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Webster Network Manager / Special Projects Dataradio Inc. 200-5500 Royalmount Ave. TEL: +1 514 737 0020 Town of Mount Royal, QC, CANADA H4P 1H7 FAX: +1 514 737 7883 http://www.dataradio.com Email: awebster@dataradio.com
