Upgrade problem, running out of inodes
-
Hi,
I just tried to upgrade from 1.2-RC3 (built on Wed Jan 2 19:19:15 EST 2008) to the new RC4 snapshot, I noticed that the web GUI was performing very slowly, and then I got this error whist attempting to enable the upgrade.
Warning: touch(): Unable to create file /var/run/fwup.enabled because No space left on device in /usr/local/www/system_firmware.php on line 79

A reboot cures the problem (as you would expect)
