I haven't even gotten off the ground yet, 28 lines in /var/db/pkg/world and my alotted inodes have been already used up? No gnome, kde, gimp, office etc etc. FWIW, I thought I'd chroot in and do an emerge -C mozilla-firefox but it hadn't even been installed yet! It choked on dev-java/jdk. So, did emerge mozilla-firefox. Same thing: IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device: '/var/db/pkg/dev-java/-MERGING-sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/CFLAGS' mw
