There is only one big partition, plus the swap one:
-----
spl09:/home/vmunoz/tmp# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 9729 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 2432 19535008+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 2433 2556 996030 82 Linux swap

Yes, that's what I wanted to show. If it were a kernel issue, I would
have had problems with the other machine as well, as it is above the 34G
limit. Now, the machine with the 40G disk has a small 100M boot partition,
/dev/hda1, mounted on /boot, but /dev/hda2, which is mounted on /,
is shown by df to be 36G, so that's fine. And it's still above (well,
slighty) the 34G for 2.3 and older kernels. But then again, I'm using a
newer kernel.
