Hi there, |

I was trying to make a clean install on a disk with a previous installation |
4 |
of Gentoo on a reiserfs partition, but I wanted to keep some files. I |
5 |
thought I would be able to boot with the LiveCD, mount the partition, remove |
6 |
everything except the files I wanted to keep (moving them to a temporal |
7 |
directory) and then copy a stage3 to the partition. |

|

After mounting the partition and trying to rm -rf a directory I got a |
10 |
"Cannot remove ... operation not permitted". After googlong a while I found |
11 |
about chattr, and although it seems this is a ext2/3 tool I tried it and I |
12 |
was able to remove some files after doing a chattr -ia on them. Any way, |
13 |
there are some files I'm not able to delete, and they seem to be non regular |
14 |
files (links, linux sockets,...). Any idea why this is happening? |

Thanks in advance, best regards |
