You can notice that the informations for /dev/sd1 are identical to those of my main partition /dev/sda1. But /dev/sdb1 is actually a 16 Gb SD card. fdisk provides correct informations: > fdisk /dev/sdb p Disk /dev/sdb: 15.9 GB, 15931539456 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1936 cylinders, total 31116288 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00037e0d Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 63 31101839 15550888+ 83 Linux The command 'dmesg' gives when I plug in the card >dmesg [ 3299.049759] usb 2-2: new high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci [ 3299.194700] usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0bda, idProduct=0138 [ 3299.194718] usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 3299.194728] usb 2-2: Product: USB2.0-CRW [ 3299.194738] usb 2-2: Manufacturer: Generic [ 3299.194746] usb 2-2: SerialNumber: 20090516388200000 [ 3299.218485] scsi3 : usb-storage 2-2:1.0 [ 3300.220628] scsi 3:0:0:0: Direct-Access Generic- Multi-Card 1.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS [ 3300.224353] sd 3:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 [ 3300.931175] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] 31116288 512-byte logical blocks: (15.9 GB/14.8 GiB) [ 3300.932269] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [ 3300.932284] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 [ 3300.933399] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page present [ 3300.933411] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 3300.940241] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page present [ 3300.940254] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 3300.941306] sdb: sdb1 [ 3300.949741] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page present [ 3300.949757] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 3300.949767] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk I use the stable distribution (raring) > lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 13.04 Release: 13.04 > more /proc/version Linux version 3.8.0-19-generic (buildd@roseapple) (gcc version 4.7.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1) ) #30- Ubuntu SMP Wed May 1 16:36:13 UTC 2013 > dpkg -l coreutils ii coreutils 8.20-3ubuntu5 i386 GNU core utilities ** Affects: coreutils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1179770 Title: Wrong information reported by command df To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/1179770/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
