"free" (at least by my experiments) appears to display free memory resources (ie RAM).
"df" is what you want to use to determine free hard drive space. "df -h" for nice human-readable numbers.

Subject: [TriLUG] Xebian linux on the Xbox and memory cards



I now have the files needed to do a software install on your xbox if you have a memory unit. It was a pain to install Xebian because my xbox did not like my sansdisk key. As a note I was able to use my zaurus as a usb drive for the xbox.

My question is how to determine the free space left on the hard drive. I am using free but it does not seem to be showing me right amount of space. Is there a better command to determine the amount of disk space from the command line?
