I have 2 directories on a zip disk. they have the
following permissions ..

drwxr-xr-x   4 root     root        16384 Jun 30
11:27 .
drwxr-xr-x   3 root     root         4096 Jun  7
20:43 ..
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     root         2048 Jun 30
11:27 KDE2
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     root         2048 Jun  8
10:51 X

I have tried to delete the two folders rm -R -f *
I was told they are read only, So I have chmod 755
* and 777 * and still no joy.

What could I be doing wrong. One note I can only
write to the zip disk if I am root.

JAson.
