Hello all,

I have recently installed RH 9.0 with the stock kernel[1] on a
machine in my lab.  It has a 140MB SCSI disk as a data disk:

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1            143358332 122561488  13628244  90% /h4

Which seems to have 13+ GB free.  When I try and create a new file
on it I get:

#touch 1
touch: creating `1': No space left on device

Which shouldn't be true.  Now you might say (others here have):
"maybe you're out of inodes".  Well, I've been out of inodes
before filling a disk before and amazingly enough the message when
that happens is: "out of inodes".  This is the largest disk I have
tried to put in a Linux system, so I'm wondering if I've hit
some kind of limit.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

[1] It has a stock kernel even though I need to build
a new one because the kernel doesn't build from the sources
supplied on the CD.  I don't know where the distributed
kernel come from, but not from those sources.  But that
is a separate issue...
