Need assistance with afio problem.

I am trying to use afio to back up my 386 based SCO Xenix 2.3.2 system.
The command I use is

find /usr /u -print | afio -oZ -L/back/log | dd of=/dev/rct0 ibs=10b obs=1000b

Part way thru the backup, messages appear in the log file something to the
effect of "File table overflow" repeated many times.  On the console the
message "Inode table overflow" appears many times.  When the job
completes the "df" command shows 1000's of free inodes. I suspect it may
have something to do with the compressing of the data but does any one know
for sure.

Thanks,

Michael
