Sorry I was not clear here, I want to check more then _one_ directory,
at once:

like /home/oswald but du -sh returns a error that /home/oswald/pan/cache
is not readable ( something about input-output error.

Sure it is :-)  But since du returns the above error it does not
finish. du -h /the_directory works but it prints then all files. of
course I could put the output into a file and then go trough that...
