Also, thinking about it later, I'm likely wrong that an inode was a whole block, even with 512 byte blocks. More likely is that original UFS inodes were 64 bytes, with 8 fitting in a 512 byte block. I'm sorry, I don't have any early sources to check on this. If I scrounge in the basement I might find my bound copies of the Unix Programmers Manual (UPM), which might have a white paper on the filesystem, but this seems to be too academic to bother.
Close. UFS inodes are 128 bytes, fitting 4 per block.
