(Look in the current archive, in september, for a thread called "Problem with deleting files" I was told to shutdown dma with atacontrol, and fsck -f However, I had no chance to test it. I just copied everything I needed, made a newfs, reinstalled the system (that's fast as you have all your config files), and today, it's working fine, again. (I previously tried to use the copy of the /usr I had made, but I experienced lots of problem with X. However, you may try to do it) If you are able to backup, I think that it's a good solution. -- grégory
