>Environment:
NetBSD  6.1_RC2 NetBSD 6.1_RC2 (GENERIC) amd64
>Description:
When formatting the / with enough space (1GB) for a minimal selection of sets + 
pkgsrc; the extraction of pkgsrc fails, saying: not enough space, ran out of 
inodes (or a similar message).

Affects 6.0 and 6.0.1 as well. Not tested with -current.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install NetBSD using sysinst, set 1GB as the size of /, try to "fetch and 
unpack" pkgsrc.
>Fix:
Choose a smaller size for /, like 950MB. Since the message is "not enough 
space" it might seem dumb to do so; but the density of inodes is greater when 
the size is less than 1000MB (I found this info in the guide if my memory is 
good);
