I'm trying to remove a file, yet it fails with ESTALE ("Stale NFS file

fails to fix it.

Is /lib/rc/console/unicode suppoed to be NFS or do I need to do a long
hard fsck of /?

Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?

It's just a stale handle, i.e., some process opened the file, but the
file is then deleted, moved or renamed by another process.

If you know what process is holding the handle of the non-existent
file, restart it, if not, re-mount the file system.

`umount -l` might help you there.
