Re: filename problem

Hi -

I have a few files on my system which I'm having issues dealing with. Here
is the story:

File can't be ls'd:
# ls -l
ls: egotrippi_-_??l??_koskaan_ikin??.mp3: No such file or directory
total 135800
[ The error is generated, but then the file isn't listed with the rest of
the output. ]

File can't be glob'd:
# rm ego*
rm: cannot remove `egotrippi_-_?\346l?\346_koskaan_ikin?\346.mp3': No such
file or directory

File can't be mv'd (here it is quoted):
# mv "egotrippi_-_??l??_koskaan_ikin??.mp3" test.mp3
mv: cannot stat `egotrippi_-_?\346l?\346_koskaan_ikin?\346.mp3': No such
file or directory

Or just escape'd:
# rm egotrippi_-_\??l\??_koskaan_ikin\??.mp3
rm: cannot remove `egotrippi_-_?\346l?\346_koskaan_ikin?\346.mp3': No such
file or directory

I've unmounted the partition and force fsck'd it, it checks clean. For the
curious, it is on a mdadm'd (RAID1) JFS partition.

I've tried changing my locale to ISO8859-1, ISO8859-15, and UTF-8.

I've also tried removing the file via midnight commander, I get the
'cannot stat' error message.

I just moved the system in particular from Fedora over to Debian. Fedora
had no problems reading it.

Any suggestions would of course be appreciated.

Pls clarify.

You installed the disk in a different computer, one which runs Fedora?

You installed Fedora in the same computer, and that had no trouble?
Something else?
