Re: ooops



Right on, Scott.  When I do df I see this:

Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda6              2448673    944244   1377826  41% /
/dev/hda1                10213      2277      7409  24% /boot
/dev/hda2              5438871   3223939   1933322  63% /home

There's also the handy dandy df -h, which might be a bit easier to
follow:

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda6             2.3G  922M  1.3G  41% /
/dev/hda1              10M  2.2M  7.2M  24% /boot
/dev/hda2             5.2G  3.1G  1.8G  63% /home
