Hi,

Use "chattr -ia".  The "-a" (append-only) attribute will also pin the
files against deletion.

Failing that, "debugfs" lets you forcibly delete files: "clri
<filename>" will clear the inode by force, and a subsequent e2fsck
will fix up the fs summary information to be consistent with the
destroyed file (including deleting the directory entry pointing to the
nuked inode).

Cheers,
 Stephen
