Hi, once 10.2 was released I installed it on my laptop using ext3
instead of reiserfs to avoid support issues. Now comes the issue, my
home filesystem has 56GB of which i used 53GB, BUT the free space
states 41MB. So, where are the other 3GB?.

Ext3 reserves 5% of the available disk space for root. Thereby, it is
ensured that root can log in even if a user "filled" the whole disk.
However, this does not make sense on your seperate home partition since
root does not use it as its home:

Thanks, already fixed it.
Nonetheless, fillung up a partition above ~85% is considered harmful to
performance due to fragmentation!
Well, it's my laptop (not high end server) and would like to use every
GB I paid for :p
They are being used...to keep your files defragged in real time.
