Re: File impossible to delete

[Ken Lauffenburger <ken@efficient.com>]

I have the same problem.

I have been running Debian 1.3.0 on a 2.0.30 kernel since April; before
that I was running Slackware and this file has probably been around
since then.  Last fall when it was a Slackware system I tried running
some 2.1.x kernels for a short time, probably 2.1.1x or 2.1.2x vintage,
but not 2.1.4x.

I have tried all the recent suggestions (except debugfs), and like Peter,
none of them have worked.

My undeletable file is:

    crw-rw-rw-   1 65535    tty        4,  65 Jul 17  1994 ttyS1

(Note the interesting owner name.)

Just thought I would raise my hand and let you all know that Peter is
not the Lone Ranger out there WRT this problem.  :-)
