Perfectly normal. There is a "recomp" chunk at the end of the disk that is not visible to the CMS FS. It is where the CMS nucleus is stored, since the 190 is a bootable disk.
Nice catch, Ian. Very observant. So CP is telling you how big the minidisk is and CMS is telling you how much space it thinks it can use. -- R; "Ian S.
