Hi



sorry, it's OT for this list.



I'm open to suggestions wich list might be qualified.



Anyway, information for the 8GB Intenso stick:



$ lsusb

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1307:0165 Transcend Information, Inc. 2GB/4GB Flash Drive



$ su root -c "parted /dev/sdb print"

Model: Intenso Rainbow (scsi)

Disk /dev/sdb: 8087MB

Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

Partition Table: loop



NumberÂ* StartÂ* EndÂ*Â*Â*Â* SizeÂ*Â*Â* File systemÂ* Flags

1Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* 0.00BÂ* 8087MBÂ* 8087MBÂ* fat32



The result of 'spinymouse@64studio:/media/INTENSO$ su root -c "rm -fr a64"':

Among others there were 76 files for /media/INTENSO/a64/spinymouse/Documents/[cryptic file names] causing 'Read-only file system' or an 'Input/output error'.



This two files are the sources, that were copied to the USB stick by using 64 Studio 3.3 alpha:

ls ~/Documents -a

.Â* ..Â* HowtoVST4Linux.abwÂ* translation.txt



I installed lde, ncurses-hexedit and tweak. At the moment I'm only fine with hexeditor from the package ncurses-hexedit, while I had issues using lde and tweak.



Until now I only run



root@64studio:/home/spinymouse# cd /media/INTENSO/a64

root@64studio:/media/INTENSO/a64# hexeditor -r



Later today I'll search the web for the flags that 'delete' the directory entries for the file names or the complete /a64 directory. If anybody has information about this or a better idea how to remove the directory /media/INTENSO/a64, any hints are welcome.



I don't know when this happened and what's the cause for this is.



An issue for 64 Studio 3.3 alpha, when I copied the files? A broken USB stick? Or an issue for Suse 10.2, when I tried to delete the files the first time. Or anything else.



FWIW I tried to remove the files with 3.0 beta and 3.3 alpha too.

I wonder if I should set up Windows and try to run the system's error check, that also comes with a repair function.

Reclaiming unconnected clusters.



I'm not sure if it's working or if it hung up. I guess it's the latter.



Cheers!
