Hello,

I have since re-installed Guix on a different (larger) drive on the same
machine.

I tried various combinations/option of `guix gc`; whatever ones failed
with that message always failed with that message. I *think* (but am not
certain) that `guix gc --verify` may have not given any output, but
running it in any case did not affect `guix gc` producing the error
message.

I don't know if it was connected, but I also found that `/gnu` was
trying to use more than twice the number of available inodes.

[On my new install, I have not had these issues, though `/gnu` does seem
to use a worrying number of inodes:

Filesystem               Inodes   IUsed    IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/sda2               6553600 4052120  2501480   62% /

versus lots of free space remaining:

Filesystem             Type      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2              ext4       98G   40G   54G  43% /

]
