I try to generate a filesystem on a minidisk for NEWS. There are 190000 blocks available and I try to generate 90000 inodes. mkfs /dev/hd7 190000:90000 If I say less than 32000 inodes, the AIX-system will do it, but if I say more than 32000 inodes (iE 90000) I will get 32000 and not one more. thanks for help fozzy --------------------------------------------------------- EDV GesmbH Vieanna/Europe USENET: fozzy@edvvie.at Tel: (0043) (222) 59907 (8-20 CET)
