Please no smart remarks, > I know I'm a rookie. There have been a couple of good suggestions. The "how can this be?" answer is: the "Capacity" is reported as a percentage of usable blocks. Notice that "Used" is still less than "1K-Blocks". 90% (generally) of the "1K-blocks" figure is available for normal use (FFS doesn't (didn't) work very well without a bit of elbow-room). General users can't take the filesystem above that figure; root processes can. -- jan grant, ILRT, University of Bristol. http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ Tel +44(0)117 9287163 Fax +44 (0)117 9287112 RFC822 jan.grant@bris.ac.uk Ceci n'est pas une pipe | To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
