Hi all :) My /home is on an XFS partition all to it's own. The other day the lights went out and when I rebooted, there's an empty directory that can't be erased. This directory is a subdirectory in ~/.kde4/ The funny thing about this is that I can rename the directory, but I can't delete it: [root@mine albumcovers]# ls . .. cache [root@mine albumcovers]# ls -lah cache/ total 0 drwx------ 1 rafa users 6 Jan 10 02:23 . drwx------ 3 rafa users 18 Jan 10 02:23 .. [root@mine albumcovers]# du -sh cache/ 0 cache/ [root@mine albumcovers]# mount | grep -i home /dev/sda3 on /home type xfs (rw,relatime,attr2,delaylog,noquota) [root@mine albumcovers]# file cache/ cache/: directory [root@mine albumcovers]# rm -Rf cache/ rm: cannot remove `cache': Directory not empty [root@mine albumcovers]# mv cache other_dir_name [root@mine albumcovers]# ls . .. other_dir_name [root@mine albumcovers]# rm -Rf other_dir_name/ rm: cannot remove `other_dir_name': Directory not empty [root@mine albumcovers]# ls -lah other_dir_name/ total 0 drwx------ 1 rafa users 6 Jan 10 02:23 . drwx------ 3 rafa users 27 Jan 10 21:14 .. [root@mine albumcovers]# du -sh other_dir_name/ 0 other_dir_name/ [root@mine albumcovers]# Kernel version: 3.1.8-1-ARCH (Arch Linux) XFS: xfsprogs 3.1.7-1 Any idea of what's going on? Any tool I can use to understand what's happening? TIA Rafa -- "We cannot treat computers as Humans.
