This would probably be better on questions@ but it is possible that you
have files on the root partition under /usr that are being hidden by the
/usr partition (or any of your other partitions). Check there's nothing
`under' your mounts.

Jamie's comment about the reserved margin is also correct, but it doesn't
account for 2GB.
