Synopsis: df - wrong size of /dev/ad0s3a State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: keramida State-Changed-When: Sat Sep 21 13:11:16 PDT 2002 State-Changed-Why: df(1) is correct. UFS filesystems in FreeBSD can be configured to keep a minimum of free space unused, and only write data to the free space reserve when the rest of the partition is full. The default size of this free space reserve is set to 8% and you have filled all of your / partition and continued writing to it as root. The root user is allowed to make use of the free space reserve, and now you filled all of your free space reserve too! Try to find out what is eating up all your / partition space. The filesystem code will happily recover and start behaving as usual once you delete some of the data that is now filling your root partition. Thanks for submitting a bug report for what you thought was a genuine bug :) Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-bugs->keramida Responsible-Changed-By: keramida Responsible-Changed-When: Sat Sep 21 13:11:16 PDT 2002 Responsible-Changed-Why: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=43174 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
