Hi, I have a 20 GB HD, partitioned in several smaller parts, some vfat: Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda5 1035628 677468 305552 69% / /dev/hda11 909112 693236 169692 81% /home /dev/hda6 2063504 1247640 711044 64% /usr /dev/hda12 1296528 1099708 130956 90% /hana /dev/hda1 2096160 2026496 69664 97% /wailea /dev/hda7 2096160 1899840 196320 91% /paia /dev/hda8 5114684 4285368 829316 84% /makena /dev/hda9 5114684 4909000 205684 96% /lahaina

This is a recurring problem on that partition: df only shows the right amount of free space after a while (it may take several hours). I don't know what's causing this delay, and I haven't noticed it on any other partition. I am using Woody, kernel 2.2.17 with ide backport installed. I've tried sync, but that doesn't change anything. Anyone an idea what might be going on, and how I should fix this problem? I don't think my system has been compromised, 'cause the free space was only created (by deleting a large file) seconds before I did df, so it's not like someone is eating my free space that fast ;) Thanks for any advice, Frederik -- "Here at the Phone Company, we serve all kinds of people; from Presidents and Kings to the scum of the earth ..."
