Hmm, maybe you have some reserved blocks which are not showing up in df? I have not checked this though...

I've never really understood why though, so anyone know ? Eg: $ df -klP / Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on /dev/mapper/VG00-LVol00 4031680 2204200 1622680 58% / $ bc bc 1.06 Copyright 1991-1994, 1997, 1998, 2000 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

For details type `warranty'. 4031680 - 2204200 1827480 So either df is wrong, I'm blind, or bc can't do take aways ;) Anyone know why df is wildly inaccurate ?
