It looks like you have a 15G filesystem on a 25G partition. Did you
increase the partition size at some point?
What is wrong ? This machine after used for a week, a message telling
that the partition is full (15gb is used up), and I found that under
/mnt/ms/ folder there were still some contents supposed should have been
umounted, even I umount it again, the contents are still there! I think
it has something to do with misreported partition size as above mentioned.
I think the two are unrelated. This probably happened because you copied
some files to /mnt/ms when the filesystem you usually have mounted there
was not mounted, so those files are actually in the root partition.
Paul.
I did not increase partition size ever since I made this partition at 25
gb, and I stalled fc3 on it for 2 weeks and I found this happened.
