I don't believe reducing imaxpct results in more free space, because 
that's the *maximum* Inodes can have.

I'm not a dev, but AFAIK the "no free space" problem comes when the 
space in the first TeraByte is completely filled. I don't remember 
exactly, either the FAQ tells you or look in the mailinglist archive. 
The question about "no free space despite enough free" comes rather 
often.
