Any errors in the system logs? I'd try most recent xfs_repair next. If
that doesn't fix it, make an xfs_metadump for Barry to look at. :)
Make a backup first if you're paranoid.
Hi again,
Using a 2.6.23 kernel and after a clean xfs_repair-2.9.4 run I can't
remove that file:
sylla:/# rm /lost+found/3912672557
rm: cannot remove `/lost+found/3912672557': Operation not permitted
sylla:/# ls -li /lost+found/3912672557
3912672557 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2006-04-09 19:10
/lost+found/3912672557 -> unix.7.gz
Can you apply the patch in
http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2007-09/msg00222.html
and run the patched repair on your filesytem?
Barry.
