Are you sure you're mounting the filesystem correctly?  This is how I do
it on my machine:

    joni:~# mkdir /mnt/tmp
    joni:~# mount -o loop /root/root_fs /mnt/tmp
    joni:~# df -i /mnt/tmp
    Filesystem            Inodes   IUsed   IFree IUse% Mounted on
    /root/root_fs          15808   11124    4684   71% /mnt/tmp
    joni:~#

So here you can see that 71% of the inodes are used up.

You should also do a regular `df /mnt/tmp' to see how much of the
filesystem is actually used.

If these commands show that the filesystem still has space, you might
want to have a look to see what that init script is doing - it looks
like it's using tar to create device nodes but that's failing.  Just
using static device nodes rather than udev might be a simpler way to get
it working.

Have you tried any other guest filesystems?
