Run a "df -i" and it wil show you how many inodes are available on the filesystem as well: bash# df -i Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on /dev/wd0a 396527 317253 59447 84% 3322 94596 3% / /dev/wd0h 429295 358089 49741 88% 20726 84872 20% /usr /dev/wd2a 1939861 698347 1144520 38% 233822 732832 24% /news1 /dev/wd3a 1998213 1305520 592782 69% 40700 450818 8% /news2 /dev/sd0a 1023076 77237 894685 8% 2811 246787 1% /www /dev/sd1a 994164 0 944455 0% 1 479229 0% /mnt If you run out of inodes, you won't be able to create any more files in the filesystem, even if you have many megabytes available. - Brian G.
