You have wasted 595952 kB till now (maybe you will find > some old files on /dev/sda7, from a time before you changed /etc/fstab) Thank you very much! I now have the rest of my missing drive space back! Here is what 'df' now reports: Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda8 1189183 628951 498793 56% / /dev/sdb5 2029267 1514002 410358 79% /usr /dev/sda5 1427 438 989 31% /bp /dev/sda7 576825 190950 356078 35% /usr/src For the record, *I* did not setup fstab like that. When I installed slink many, many moons ago, it somehow "lost" that 563MB partition! I never got around to tracking down where it went until recently. Since this happened at install time, there were never any files on sda7. Anyway, while I haven't rebooted yet (don't want to ;-) everything seems to be working fine.
