Yup, that did it.

I couldn't find this one, but I have one strange thing.
It is not so important since that user is gone,
but read on why I wouldn't like to erase that volume
without prior asking what goes on:
Normally every user has a volume for his/her
own homedir:
cfs lv /coda/homes/sneumann
Status of volume 0x7f000001 (2130706433) named "coda.homes.sneumann"
I have one where things are different:
cfs lv /coda/homes/pgehler
Status of volume 0x7f000000 (2130706432) named "coda.root"
This looks as if there is nothing mounted:
mkdir bla
cfs lv /coda/homes/bla
Status of volume 0x7f000000 (2130706432) named "coda.root"
but actually there seems to be a loop:
ls /coda/homes/pgehler/
aschneid cdessin floemker itoptsis mkleineh pgehler sneumann tcwiekal
[...]
cbauckha efrese iphaenel mkatzer pfeiffer slang tboverma
ls /coda/homes/
aschneid cdessin floemker itoptsis mkleineh pgehler sneumann tcwiekal
[...]
cbauckha efrese iphaenel mkatzer pfeiffer slang tboverma
Anyway, this was just for completeness.
No data seems to be lost.
Yours,
Steffen
