Latest kernel (kernel-2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.i686): files under /var/log, /var/run and even MySQL database files get 512M allocated to them while they are open (which they do while system is running) even though their size is very small, leading to reporting of very less free space(a few megabytes) even though 3.1G should be reported. Previous Kernel (2.6.27.9-159.fc10.i686): There is no such behaviour and system reports correct free space. I will file bug in bugzilla this week-end after collecting more information instead of just some observations. I read the mail of that guy and you are right, he was talking of FC7.
