Re: Root filesystem full; faubackup problem?



hello,

I have had this problem a couple of time. df and du output would not match.

This is due to the way du and df count. See here for explanations :

Hope it helps

If anyone has any suggestions I would be very grateful.

Yes.  I have a suggestion.  Post _RELEVANT_ data.  Show us the output of df -h
and du -ch.
