> One of the possible causes I've thought of was running out of innodes but don't know how to check that or any of the other options used to create the file system on - anyone want to help there?

You can try `touch`ing a file on that partition and see if it fails.
If so, you've run out of inodes; no need to peek at fs internals :)
