The number of Inodes are related to the filesystem size. But when you create a file system, you also have a chance to use something other than the defaults. I ran into this problem a while back, when squid ran out of inodes on a small filesystem. In my case, I just scaled back the number of directories that squid was allowed to create. (But you may want a second opinion on the whole thing.) [RC] On Wed, 21 Jun 2000, Philip M. Gollucci wrote: > > I decided that I wanted to mount my ports partition separately from > /usr. So I did.
