How is it possible? See the discrepancies above? Your du isn't reflecting reality of what's on disk. And the issue isn't sparse files as that would cause du to show you're full but df would say you have tons of actual on disk free space. It seems clear that your ext3 / filesystem is actually full. You are actually using 54282104 blocks. Go through your directories manually to find the files that are eating up that other 15/16ths of your partition. Given the space in question, I'd say you may likely have some downloaded ISOs, or other large files, probably in your /home/paul/ directory. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
