Re: Permission denied on access to files; even as root

[Chris Worley <chrisw@lnxi.com>]

Long day.  Tried booting into single user mode, and running reiserfsck
with --fix-fixable, it would say it was running in "fixable" mode, but
end saying there were 30000+ files that could be fixed w/
"--fix-fixable"; repeated many times, but the files permissions would
not cooperate.  I finally did a "--rebuild-tree"... there's a few
hundred files in lost+found (much less than the last time I had to
rebuild the tree),  The reiserfs loadable module has debugging turned
on, which might help if there are any problems remaining.

Anyway, the system is up and stable again.  I can create large files
too.

Thanks to all that helped!
