Hi, I have a problem with the deletion of a file on a 7.2 machine (IBM, SMP) The file sits on a raid5 disk with an ext3 filesystem. [somesystem@someuser]# cat /proc/version Linux version 2.4.9-34custom (root@somesystem) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.2 2.96-108.7.2)) #1 SMP Mon Sep 2 11:37:22 CEST 2002 [someuser@somesystem]# ls -il total 1073747024 32477 -rw-rw-r-- 1 test test 644212388 Aug 30 23:40 test.log [someuser@somesystem]# file test.log test.log: can't stat `test.log' (Value too large for defined data type). When I do a rm -f test.log, the system crashes; messages fly over the console, but no output on a ssh session. I do need the diskspace occupied by this file - anyon a clue how to continue/proceed ? Many thanks regards paul pot sony music nl
