Let's see if there's a filesystem/partition size mismatch; try this: # ext2online -v /dev/hda10 If there's a mismatch, this should fix it. The other thing you can do is: # df -h # umount /mnt/ms # mv /mnt/ms /mnt/ms.old # mkdir /mnt/ms # mount /mnt/ms # df -h Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
