I suspect it is the /dev/.static directory.
As a normal user (LANG=C to avoid Japanese message); [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ LANG=C ls -ld /dev /dev/.static /dev/.static/dev /bin/ls: /dev/.static/dev: Permission denied drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 3900 Oct 5 09:42 /dev/ drwx------ 3 root root 60 Oct 5 2006 /dev/.static/ and as a root; ferio:/home/kohda# LANG=C ls -ld /dev /dev/.static /dev/.static/dev drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 3900 Oct 5 09:42 /dev drwx------ 3 root root 60 Oct 5 2006 /dev/.static drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 28672 Oct 4 08:12 /dev/.static/dev so, as you suspected, /dev/.static was blocking df. However, on my another system of testing, it seems the permissions are the same as those of unstable; capa:/home/kohda# LANG=C ls -ld /dev /dev/.static /dev/.static/dev drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 13560 Oct 5 09:43 /dev drwx------ 3 root root 60 Sep 25 16:49 /dev/.static drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 28672 Oct 2 15:55 /dev/.static/dev but df works fine!

It might be so. If you need any other information, please let me know. Thanks for your rapid reply.
