SolutionYour command is trying to use /usr to carrout the command and as it is not fully there the you will get this error.
See :-

The rm command lives in /usr/bin
so try:-
/sbin/rm -R /usr/*

Re: Root file system is full. Can't remove (rm) files.
the system needs dld.sl , Is the root disk inside the machine ?, if not connect the disk to another system and import u'r root vg into that & then delete the files. and restore your backup.
that's the only option dear ..... you can try booting through support tape & importing vg then ....... give a try ..... i need the system infront of me to solve this problem

Re: Root file system is full. Can't remove (rm) files.
once again ...
follow the steps
#cd usr/lib
if lib is not there
#cd usr
#echo * (-------gives you a list of files / directories)
#>filename1
#>filename2
do this for all files . If it is a directory it will give an error so try the next until you get some space for restoring /usr/lib/dld.sl. Then restore it from another machine or from your backup set. Once it is done delete all the files except /usr/lib.
#mount /usr
restore your /usr backup......
#umount /usr
#cd usr
#rm -r *
mount it once again or reboot
hope this helps

NB: I had faced this problem once , as i am a H/W engineer too, i could open my machine, connect the hard disk into another machine and import my root vg then recreate the dld.sl file.
