try
Code:
rm -r [filename]
while u are in the directory..or,

Code:
rm -r /path/to/directory/[filename]
to avoid you from being unsure, in the directory, type "ls -l" to confirm that the file is there

Don't use the -r option unless you know what you are doing!

And, actually, you should connect your n900 to your PC, place it in USB Mass Storage mode, and run checkdisk(chkdsk) on it - Google if you don't know how.

u can use filebox with root enabled to delete read only files from your n900 just in case if you want to delete through n900 only.

Sounds like you have a corrupt file system. You might want to think about re-flashing or at least running fsck (file system check). See the posts above, and elsewhere on this forum.

Sorry for bringing this back up, I'm experiencing the same thing, i.e. I'm using 6.1gb of space on MyDocs but only 9gb is free.
I do have my MyDocs partitioned to 22gb to allow for extra home space, but I'm still missing 7gb.

My question is, how would I go about taring MyDocs and to which location? Would it be

Code:
tar -pfc /home/user/MyDocs/MyTar.tar /home/user/MyDocs
Thanks
