Well, I would guess that if you did a "df -i" it will show all of your 
inodes as being used.

kent@ruby$ df -i
Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity iused   ifree 
%iused  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a     99183    35857    55392    39%    1961   23125    
8%   /

You need to newfs it with more inodes. You must have a lot of little
files, 
since an inode is used per file.
