You can try doing 'chmod 0664 media' (with the leading 0) and see what
happens... but if a crash changed a bunch of files over to block special..
yer simplest solution is to toss em (as root) and forget about it ;)
Why did they become block special files? <shrug> note the major and minor
numbers tho.. and the user:group settings. Looks like data corruption.
Just toss em ;)
Again, only root can manipulate files like this :)
