Hm. What are you talkin' about? The fastest and simpliest way to
get rid of this weird file is to open your FM at the page describing
file systems structure and enter:

	adb -w /dev/dskNNN

Find the directory entry on the disk, write something valid instead of /,
mount disk and remove it with vanilla rm. Of course it is not a task for
Pascal programmers. ;-)
