Subject: [gentoo-user] dir is rwx but can't create file

1 Creating files in /tmp, /etc, /lib32, and /var return ENOENT (touch
2 /tmp/foo => strerror(ENOENT)).
3 However, this is done as root and the dirs are marked 755 root:root.
4 df -i shows only 2% inode usage.
5 Any explanation as to why a rwx-ed dir can't be written to? This is
6 breaking quite a few of the init scripts.
