Hi all. I have a strange problem: I have an iso image file which (according to ls) is 569M in size:
poota:~# ls -lh image.iso -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 569M 2006-09-12 15:12 image.iso I also have an empty directory: poota:~# ls -l temp/ total 0 Then I mount the iso, loopback style: mount image.iso temp/ -o loop Now for the problem... The relevant line from "df -h": poota:~# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /root/image.iso 569M 569M 0 100% /root/temp And the result from running "du -sh": poota:~# du -sh temp/ 1.1G temp/ Just to really baffle me, I've burnt this iso image onto a 650MB CD-ROM, mounted it, and it too has 1.1GB of data on it: poota:~# du -sh /media/cdrom0 1.1G /media/cdrom0 But the "df -h" output seems more reasonable: server:~# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hdd 569M 569M 0 100% /media/cdrom0 Could anyone please tell me how there can be such a huge difference between the output from df and du? My real problem comes when I want to remove one small file from the file system, and turn it back into an iso - the resulting iso image is 1.1GB (and I can no longer write it to a CD!)
