Hello list,
Today I discovered I could no longer create files on one of my boxes, which
still runs 2.4.18 (box is too far away to upgrade right now). It gives me
'disk full' messages.
The following message is all over my logs since January 3:
vs-2120: add_save_link: insert_item returned -28
I can't seem to find much on this issue, is this a bug in reiserfs (which is
fixed in a later version)? Is something wrong with the fs itself?
Thanks for answers.
[I'm not subscribed @ reiserfs-list, so please cc me with answers from that
list]

Nevermind this... I was looking at the wrong partition... for half an hour....

My apologies if I sound angry. I feel like I'm talking to a void.

This is just a warning. You should be able to free some disk space by
removing some files.

why do we generate this warning? It should be fixed, yes?

Is this just the *obvious* "removing files frees space", or is there some sort
of garbage collection that will be triggered, so removing a 1K file will make it
redo tables/linked lists/whatever and return lots of blocks that used to contain
metadata?
