Hello:

I am getting a regular Kernel Panic (4 times in the last 12 hours) and the panic.log is stating this:

panic(cpu 1): hfs_remove: attempting to delete a non-empty file!

hfs_remove: attempting to delete a non-empty file!

Huh? Can anybody help me figure out what I can do to find this "file" or something? It doesn't give the name of the file, that would be too easy.

Thanks.

When all else fails, do a google search. It's what I do whenever I am working with a Linux box that is giving a weird error. Also for Windows boxes. Many times mailing lists are googlized so you might be able to check is out.

Yeah, I tried Google for sure...no luck!
