Recently several partitions on my system became damage after losing
power to my system. After running fsck several files list below where
created in the lost+found directory and serveral directories thru out my
systems (NOTICE THE MODE INFO). I can not seem to delete these files.
I always get the message Operation not permitted. I am trying to delete
them while logged in as root, so there shouldn't be a permissing Can any
tell me what these files are, why they were created and how to get rid
of them.
Upgrade to e2fsprogs 1.12; e2fsck 1.12 will be detect these nonsense
inodes and delete them for you. (Note that the presence of these
garbage inodes means that garbage somehow gotten written to your inode
table as part of your power hit, so there was probably quite a bit of
damage to your filesystem).
You can always find the latest verison of e2fsprogs on the e2fsprogs web
page, which is:
