I noticed that some system files are damaged. They are owned by strange groups/owners and the file size is zero.

Here are some examples:
Code:
-rwxr-xr-x      1 root     wheel     133312 20 sep 09:37 launchctl
-r-xr-xr-x@ 44093 root     8629311        0  4 mei  2008 link
-r-xr-xr-x@ 44093 8629310  wheel          0  4 mei  2008 ln
-r-xr-xr-x      1 root     wheel      73696 12 nov 02:51 ls

I repaired my HD and fixed some chain links, any idea to fix these files?

All of these are crucial files. I'd do an archive and install after something like this.
