Hello Pixel et al,

Exercise:
=========
  I 've tried twice to install LMDK 8.0 on a small device (600 MB harddisk 
  with 70 MB "/"). Both Installations ended with errors while writing in 
  "/etc/sysconfig" saying "/ device full" even when "df -h" showed lots of 
  free megs unused on it.

Problem:
========
  A friend of mine just mailed me why (he also tried a small device install): 
  The root partition runs out of inodes, as the number of created devices 
  (in "/dev") has rapidely increasd ...

Solution:
=========
  You have to ckech in DiskDrake, while formatting, if the assigned 
  mount point is "/" and if so use "mke2fs -N" to increase number of inodes.

P.S.: "/tmp" and "/var" were also own partitions like "/usr" and "/home"
