I've formatted an external 500GB HDD with UDF using mkudffs (--media-type=hd --blocksize=512), and this is now usable by both Linux and Windows. While copying data to it, the copy aborted with a mkdir error (ENOSPC). df showed that it had used about 20% of the data blocks and a tiny fraction (<1%) of the inodes. However, it had used just over 16000 inodes.
Does anyone know if there's a limit on directory entries? Google and other UDF spec docs aren't being helpful here. Also, are there any of the mkudffs options which can be used to raise the limit?
