My Jaz-based system ate another partition a few nights ago (big
surprise there, huh?).  This is the second time; both filesystem-
feasts came after running a large make on two separate projects.
This may well have caused the library corruption I was seeing
last week.  Yes, the SBC driver is less than robust with Jaz &
other removable drives -- but I've only seen problems when really
hammering on the disk (like with large makes).

Only the /home partition got corrupted, and it took fsck two
passes to find all the problems.  However, two files got so
completely trashed that they look like devices.  Worse, I can't
do ***anything*** to them -- mv (rename or to another dir),
rm -f, chmod, chown, all return "Operation not permitted."
This happens even in single-user mode.

IIRC, fsck marked off a couple of bad blocks.  Could this have
anything to do with it?  Is there something I can do to get
rid of these files, or do I just have to reformat /home?

Thanks,
