Hi,

inodes are basically metadata (http://www.linfo.org/inode.html). It looks
like you have a lot of files in the root directory (most probably small
files), and your system has used all available inodes. You cannot add more
inodes without re-creating the file system (mkfs), this is because the
inode number is fixed during file system creation. In this case, if the
system requires several small files, then the file system should be created
using a smaller byte-per-inode ratio. You could use another directory, in a
different device/partition for your application data, but if this
application requires all those files (let's assume that those files are not
temp files), then I really recommend to plan again the installation of this
system using another partition, only for this data.

Best regards,

HC
