it when the drive was not mounted as / and many many other things that people
have suggested. Here is what i get when root does "rm -Rf
/lib/libext2fs.so.2.4":

sounds like a immutable file, even though those permissions are totally wrong that is irrelevant to root, if you are getting operation not permitted for every action on it i would suspect immutability, try

lsattr /lib/libext2fs.so.2.4

if you see sometihng like this:

---i---         /lib/libext2fs.so.2.4

then its immutable, run

chattr -i /lib/libext2fs.so.2.4

then try and remove it.

how it got that way i would sure like to know though...
