For some strange reason, df -i doesn´t give any useful info. [solo...@shlomo1 ~]$ df -i Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/sda1 0 0 0 - / /dev/sda6 0 0 0 - /boot /dev/sda11 0 0 0 - /data1 /dev/sda12 0 0 0 - /data2 << snip snip >> But I doubt that´s the problem, because, as I wrote, when I boot from a live CD, the partition is almost empty. And, in any case, the partition only has /bin, /etc, /lib, /opt, /var, and other standard things. So I don´t see any reason to run out of inodes. -- Shlomo Solomon http://the-solomons.net Sent by KMail 1.11.4 (KDE 4.2.4) on LINUX Mandriva 2009.1 _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
