It seems that ext3 has taken 23 GB, which is about 5% of the total disk size, for itself. Is that right?
It's not reserved for the filesystem, but rather for root. Read about the -m option in the manpage to adjust that 5%.
If that is, indeed, the case, why does df just list 33M as being used?
I think the 33M is the space used by the journal, or the filesystem itself.
