If I'm not mistaken it doesn't have "inodes" but simulates them for
those programs that need to know :-

tandem@freeze:tandem 721# touch tt
tandem@freeze:tandem 722# ls -li tt
 175005 -rw-r--r--    1 tandem   tandem          0 Jan 27 15:07 tt
tandem@freeze:tandem 723# mv tt tt.old
tandem@freeze:tandem 724# touch tt
tandem@freeze:tandem 725# ls -li tt
 175058 -rw-r--r--    1 tandem   tandem          0 Jan 27 15:07 tt
tandem@freeze:tandem 726# ls -li tt.old
