LAME isn't responsible for these files, they are part of your

Hmmm... this sounds like one of:
 - bug in the filesystem code (depending on the type of the filesystem,
   I assume you use ext2fs or ext3fs: unlikely)
 - hardware problems (RAM or harddisk cables, or harddisk itself), you
   may get other strange errors sooner or later...

LAME. If it works this time (and I assume it will work): everything is
fine; if not: you know how to fix it now.
