Hi,
I've set up a NetBSD 0.9 system that is running nntp and spooling all the
usenet articles locally.  All is going OK, but I'm running out of i-nodes. 
I think that on the spool drive (250Mb) there are 50,000 or so i-nodes.  How
do I step this up, to, say, 150,000 or so, because I'm putting in a 340Mb
drive soon and I'll surely run out of i-nodes on that.
