klaruz at garfield:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 36G 28G 6.5G 81% /
/dev/hdg1 53G 44G 7.7G 85% /home/klaruz/abyss
/dev/hdc1 113G 100G 8.2G 93% /home/klaruz/chasm
The chasm is a 120 gigger using ext3. The rest of the space is lost to
formating. It takes space to store the information about what files go
where. Don't worry, it's normal.
