[comp.sys.sun] Where oh where has my disk space gone?

phil@cgrg.ohio-state.edu (04/29/91)

System:
	Sun 4/280 OS 4.1.1
	Disk -- Hitachi DK815-10
	Controller -- Xylogics 451

I'm trying to figure out where my disk space has gone from the root file
system (/) on my main server.  When I do a 'df' on the server, I find:

Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/xy0a              30191   24546    2625    90%    /

Which to me says I've used 24546Kb on the / partition.  OK, when I MOUNT
that partition on 4/110 also running 4.1.1 and do a 'du' on the file
system, the final line of the du (which usually reports the total Kb for
the file system):

	13274   ./grumpy

OK, there is a 10 Mbyte discrepancy between 'df' and 'du' . . . where oh
where has those 10 mbytes gone??!!??

Thank you.
