Hi,
CVS started complaining at me about file permissions, an "ls -l" in the
offending directory gave me:

After various "su", "rm *", "rm -f" etc. I can get it down to:
?--xr-s--x 25955 8236 25441 4294967295 Oct 29 2024 elvenforest.p
?--Srwx-wt 17746 2313 20294 4294967295 Jun 22 2010 excalibur.p

c--xr--r-- 8295 31074 28265 115, 32 Apr 4 1987 holygrail.p
I can't delete these files:
# rm -f elvenforest.p
rm: cannot unlink `elvenforest.p': Operation not permitted
If I umount home and do an fsck I get:
# fsck /home
Parallelizing fsck version 1.17 (26-Oct-1999)
e2fsck 1.17, 26-Oct-1999 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
/dev/hda4 has gone too long without being checked, check forced.
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Inode 703, i_size is 4096, should be 28672. Fix<y>?
There is no cruical data on the disk which isn't backed up.
Should I tell fsck to fix or it?
Is my disk on the way out, should I replace it? If so, does anyone have
a small
hard disk (~ 3GB) which they would be willing to sell?
Thanks,
Allan
