u got much small files on your computer. the problem is (i think) that you 
dont have another inode free to create the next file that uses the blocks 
beside the used inode with his blocks... but i also dont know if the os is 
left space on the device. and simple uses the next free inode to create the 
small file... and the free block is used next time u write a big file whitch 
is filling your left blocks... (that makes no sense for me)
