But until you unset the immutable bit as the root user you will get absolutely nowhere with this.
I am sorry gderf , I don't understand what you are suggesting I do?
I have no idea what an "immutable bit" is, nor how to unset it. And, if I need to unset it, how did it get set in the first place?
Could you please be specific about what I need to do, as I am only a beginner ...
