- I've got a weird problem. I have a directory which seems
- impossible to delete. I've tried dopus. It does the delete-operation,
- but afterwards the directory is still there. I tried to move it to ram,
- but that didn't work either (the dir was copied to ram, but not deleted from
- the hd.). Tried to delete it from dos. Got the message "directory not empty", even
- if it is. Even tried Disksalv without luck.
-
- I could of course rename the dir, and use it for something else. But because of this
- dir, I'm also prevented from deleting three other empty dirs, which this dir resides in
- (news/uunews/comp/sys)
-
- It would be nice to be able to get rid of it without having to format the entire
- partition. :-)
-
- Any suggestions?
