Hi,

I have a beaglebone black that i've installed debian wheezy from Armhf onto 
the eMMC

While this was working great up until recently when I ran out of inodes on 
the patition even though I had 40% of space free on the device.
Now I understand I cant increase inodes on a filesystem that has unix 
installed and I need to recreate the patition which I am happy to do after 
having backed up my work.
Only issue is how do I go about doing this?

This is what I have tried so far

Create a microSD with bootable debian,

boot into debian on the USB then format the emmc
mkfs.ext4 -i 4096 /dev/mmcblk1

my understanding is that using the -i argument I can specify for every 4096 
bytes a inode should be created
*I have tried this twice now, once with 4096 a second time with 2048*

get the debian image
wget http:
//s3.armhf.com/debian/saucy/bone/ubuntu-saucy-13.10-armhf-3.8.13-bone30.img.xz

extract it to the new partition
xz -cd ubuntu-saucy-13.10-armhf-3.8.13-bone30.img.xz > /dev/mmcblk1

Which to me seems like the correct steps although each time I do this when 
I type df -i the result is always the same amount of inodes (11,7000~) or 
something like that
Would really appreciate some guidance on how I can achieve increasing the 
inodes above the default.

Cheers
Tim
