This begs the question of 'what is a sufficient count of inodes?" It is well-known that the required 'inode densidy' depends on the usage of the filesystem. Newfs uses defaults that are 'reasonable' for 'typical' use, and are rarely insuficient. *IF*, however, you know you will be creating lots of 'tiny' files on a particular filesystem, it is a GOOD IDEAT(tm) to use non-default settings. > or I must > supply some addition options when creating FS?
