Are you aware that there is space in file systems reserved for use only by root? That may explain your confusion. The purpose of the reserve is to allow a sysadm to allow some things to keep working even if a normal user fills up a file system. The size of the reserve on ext2/3 file systems can be changed with tune2fs. _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
