Well, for the record, I'm not using ext2 but ext3 (mke2fs -j). |

Although, now that I think about it, I suppose there's not much point |

in having the Portage tree on a journaled FS. |

If you run man mke2fs, you should check out -N and -i. It was |
| 17 |
trial-and-error (for me, anyway) to find the right number. Presumably, |
| 18 |
-I fits in there somewhere as well. Do note that it only works when |
| 19 |
creating the FS, you can't change the inode count dynamically. |
