While this is very nice it hasn't solved my problem of a corrupted filesystem. Oh well, it seemed like a good thing to try. Is there a way to delete this inode. Fsck just isn't up to it. It goes through the motions of fixing things but when I reboot the problem's still there. -- Paul Richards at Cardiff university, UK. spedpr@uk.ac.cf.thor Internet: spedpr%thor.cf.ac.uk@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk UUCP: spedpr@cf-thor.UUCP or ...!uunet!mcsun!uknet!cf!thor!spedpr +++
