I've got a couple hundred files that seem to be in a bad state since I
tried (unsuccessfully) converting my file system, for example (as root):

/usr/bin # ls -l gdb
ls: gdb: Permission denied
/usr/bin # mv gdb gdb.bak
mv: cannot stat `gdb': Permission denied
/usr/bin # chmod a+r gdb
chmod: getting attributes of `gdb': Permission denied

Any idea what has happened and how to recover these files?

Thanks,

Chris
