How to erase corrupt files?

[svar]

I am left with some files that even root cannot access as a result of some probably HW problem.(Linux 2.4.0)
The question is how to get rid of them?
even root does not have permissions to even ls -l them
I tried fsck -t reiserfs /var/lib/mysql
but no luck (fsck.reiserfs not found)
Thanks, svar

Hi,

Its actually /sbin/reiserfsck so you can create a symlnk as follows & try again :

ln -s /sbin/reiserfsck /sbin/fsck.reiserfs

Thanks, this worked, but fsck seems to have failed
I tried

reiserfsck --rebuild-tree /dev/vg0/varnew

and after a long time of printing
[fccc000] etc to the screen it stopped

I rebooted and it sais that fsck.reiserfs on /dev/sdc6 (i.e. /)
failed(status ff) Run it manually

froot is mounted read only
use bash# mount -n -o reount,rw /

then I tried fsck -t reiserfs /dev/sdc6
and it always says this contais a mounted fs,
that fsck.reiserfs on /dev/sdc6 (i.e. /)
failed(status ff) Run it manually

and run it manually
fsck.

what should I do?

Thanks, svar
