Even root cannot write on the file system.
Incidentally I've created this file system with `newfs -m 0', so 0%
reserved for root.

# dd if=/dev/zero of=dummy.tmp 
/home: write failed, file system is full
dd: dummy.tmp: No space left on device
15+0 records in
14+0 records out
7168 bytes transferred in 0.001444 secs (4964050 bytes/sec)
# df .
Filesystem   1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/sd0s1e   36790190 35423783  1366407    96%    /home

now I have 1.3GB unusable space :(

Thank you,
Istvan
