If it was an immutable or apppend-only attribute, it should have resulted in a "Operation not permitted" error. I suspect the problem may be an underlying disk error. You might want to check "dmesg", and see if the hard drive is reporting I/O errors. It may very well be that you have problems a lot more serious than just a corrupted file system. If so, you might want to consider making an immediate backup right away, and strongly consider replacing the hard drive if you find I/O errors in your system logs. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
