I have a large file system on our Pyramid 9820 (OSX4.1)
that is for spooling netnews. It recently ran out of
inodes, and I tried to increase the number, but couldn't.

By using the "i" option of the newfs command, and by typing the
mkfs command directly, I could never get the number of inodes to
increase. i.e. the command:

/etc/newfs -v -n -i 512 /dev/iop/rpdisk00i 2363

produces

/etc/mkfs /dev/iop/rpdisk00i 73872 18 27 16384 2048 16 10 60 512
/dev/iop/rpdisk00i:	73872 sectors in 152 cylinders of 27 tracks, 18 sectors
	151.3Mb in 10 cyl groups (16 c/g, 15.93Mb/g, 2048 i/g)  <----

Am I doing this correctly, or is it a bug/feature?
