Yes, it isn't a real file, just a pointer to a block device.

I've got that too, it points to a file in the /proc directory which is dynamically generated by the kernel. Maybe it is related to a change made in Titan's kernel (the power kernel). I wouldn't worry about it though.
So are you still unable to delete that directory? Maybe you should try doing the filesystem check on the N900 if Windows didn't fix anything (I promise it won't take as long as the Windows scan did). Have you tried deleting your problem folder when it is mounted on your Windows PC?

the way to change it is not to check somthing on the pc. the way to do it is to fix the damaged thing and if you go on like that you won't get the disk working. it is not your files that are damaged. it is the whole filesystem.
but have it your way.

I am sorry to butt in the conversation, but already from the first post in the whole thread it was crystal clear that the issue is filesystem corruption.
To OP: turn off ALL extra applications, including any instant messengers and all on your phone, then open x terminal and type the following there:
root
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
fsck.vfat -aw /dev/mmcblk0p1
reboot
This should bring it back to life, unless the 'umount' command gives an error about open files. If you have any open files there you need to close them all before doing this.

For some reason I think WereCatf advice might work.
But just so I'm clear on what I'm doing, what does fsck.vfat -aw /dev/mmcblk0p1 do exactly? and there is a space between the "." and "v" right
