Hi 

I have installed a new hard drive to my FreeBSD system. Hard drive is 200gb 
but
when I fdisk and disklabel the output of "df -h" is something like that: 

/dev/ad1s1e   183G   2.0K   169G     0%    /disk2 

Here as you can see I can only use 169GB of it. Bios has seen my harddrive 
as 190GB also dmesg output is like that: 

ad1: 190782MB <WDC WD2000JB-00DUA3> [387621/16/63] at ata0-slave UDMA100 

My question is what happened to 190-169 gb or maybe after some filesystem 
information reservation what happened to 183-169 gb? 

By the way I have used default newfs parameters -b 16384 -f 2048. I don't 
know if that helps... 

REGARDS...
