Yes and no. Inodes are allocated when a filesystem is created
based on a user supplied ratio. On most Linux installs, the
default is 1 inode for each 4kb of disk space. So removing lots of
small files will get you lots farther than deleting a few large
ones. Unfortunately, there's no way to go back and allocate more
inodes. If you intend on filling this partition up with more small
files, you're going to need to reformat it.
