How to get rid of garbage filenames

Sat May 5 22:51:15 AEST 1990

I am using XENIX-386 2.3.3 and VP/IX. The other day VP/IX did a funny
(again) and although I shut down the system properly, a number of
"garbage" files appeared on one of my directories. The names of these
files consist of IBM PC-type graphics characters.

How do I get rid of them?

I've tried rm -i * but it just says ()*(*&(*(*& non-existent for each
of these files.

I've done a fsck but this didn't seem to help, either. It gave a list
of empty files, and asked questions like RECONNECT? and CLEAR? for
which I found no explanations in the documentation. After a while it
gives the message: "Sorry. No space in lost+found directory"

PLEASE HELP!
