Help!
I'm running a Dapper webserver and I'm having terrible problems with
du and df giving different results:
df -h gives me.
FilesystemSize Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/Ubuntu-root
29G 27G 347M 99% /
varrun252M 52K 252M
Its probably because the filesystem itself takes up some space.

Have a poke around for hidden .trash folders, particularly on mounted media
such as USB/Firewire hard drives. I have found that Ubuntu has a habit of
creating these on such volumes and they do not appear to get emptied by the
usual processes. I have often thought I had deleted files then

It's been hours now, and I'm totally and utterly stumped.
I've used lsof to check whether or not there are any deleted files
still sitting around taking up space, I've run an fsck, rebooted the
server and deleted some logs, but there is still a very large chunk of
hard disk space missing.

Concentrate on the DF's results. I can't remember the syntax but you can
grep for file sizes.
Start with files over 50M and work downwards.
I have this trouble with my MythTV box occasionally, it usually a log
file that explodes in size before the log rotates have time to remove it...

The volume at media is a Windows based NTFS
So is mine (attached via USB). The hidden trash file is still created on it
though. I have only recently discovered this feature so I am not sure why it
happens but it can be annoying. Of course it may not be related to your issue
but it's

du counts disk space used at a block level and not accurately counted
bytes. There is a -b parameter which gives the more realistic apparent
size of files.
Also du doesn't by default

I just got this response from another list:
The df command will report all the available space on the disk , in
other words it will report the number of blocks in the free list.
The du command gives you and total number of blocks used by the directory that
is passed to it as a
