No inodes free on /var
Trying to reconstruct a set of news archive, I recently ran out of inodes.
debian:/home/merlin# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 61M 34M 23M 59% /
/dev/hda2 182M 15k 173M 0% /tmp

/dev/hda7 26G 21G 3.6G 86% /home
debian:/home/merlin# df -i

/dev/hda7 3489792 290203 3199589 8% /home
I don't recall the installation process... if there a choice
of setting how many free inodes (as there is, say, with FreeBSD).
How can I back out and recover from the above, bearing in mind, there's
around 3-4GB of news articles sitting on /var ?
