- I've been trying to make a filesystem with more inodes (my news partition
- is chronically short of them), and can't figure out how to make it happen.
- I'm running Ultrix 4.2a RISC on a DS3100 and using RZ57s. 'newfs' is
- supposed to take "-i <bytes/inode", but no matter what I specify it always
- creates the same number of inodes (4,096 in my experimental 16MB partition.)
- I also tried using mkfs directly but no dice...
-
- Is it me or is it broken? Could someone lend me a clue, please? ;-)
