Well, though it wasn�t what I expected, I appreciate the answer. By
the way, I don�t have "man mkfs.ext2" on my system (again RH 6.2
install) just "man mkfs". I did some web searches for it, and the one
I found was very terse and didn�t indicate how to specify inodes.
What�s important is that between the 2 answers I got, I at least know I
can specify more i-nodes which will do for now. I can get more
detailed information later. Thanks again and sorry I offended.

p.s. I�ve seen worse posts than mine get treated better on this list.
