Here you are.  Your /usr partition has no free i-nodes.  Probably
because you used too large block/fragment sizes when it was newfs'd.

You have two options, both of which involve a reinstallation:

a) Resplit the disk giving more space to /usr.
b) Use a single, big root partition.

One possible layout, if you choose (a) could be:

Filesystem    Size		Mount-point	Other
/dev/ad0s1a   100-200 MB	/		-
/dev/ad0s1b   ??? MB		-		(swap, tmpfs)
/dev/ad0s1e   200-300 MB	/var		-
/dev/ad0s1f   rest		/usr		the rest of the disk

You can then use /usr/home for the home directories of users, and have
most of your space in /usr (where it is needed).
