I'm having a spot of bother with a large (900GB) partition.

fdisk claims it's 900GB. I made an ext3 fs on it and df says it's only 94GB. Which is correct? Or did I do something wrong?

If this partition is on a LARGER drive, you may need to use parted and not fdisk to create your partitions. Large drives need gpt labels and are not able to be partitioned with fdisk.

However, that is not usually a problem with 900GB drive.
