The inode count does not seem to be the cause for your problem . Which kernel version are you compiling? Did you do a make clean ; make dep; make mrproper ; make bzImage; make modules ? DO you have kernel devel and kernel devel tools installed? Check your disk table by doing a debugfs . You may be out of groups or have errors in their count or the bitmap count. Inodes are not the only things you may be out of. If everything seems OK then try installing something else. If that gives an error then your disk table is in trouble. Have a look at it with ext2ed. CAREFUL , it is an extremely dangerous program , and the RH 5.2 version i have used did not even bother to echo what i had typed. To try a quick fix, do a telinit 2( in RH, 3 for SuSE) to go into single user mode and do a fsck /dev/hda6 or e2fsck /dev/hda6 and see the messages. DO NOT fiddle around with ext2ed if you do not know what it can do.Just use it to READ your partition info . Once the status of that is known, one can make a guess. One hunch- What are the permissions in your directory/files? r they 644 and r u logged in as root? Shanker PS. How about coming around to my class . Just ask around for the Post Graduate Class for Comp Sc and Engg . It is on the 4th floor ( can't be too far off your class) We can discuss it better there.
