Operating Systems SCO du and dfspace reporting Post 302699637 by dextergenious on Wednesday 12th of September 2012 05:48:27 AM

On my partition /

du -k | tail -1 gives

38253272 (last line is the summantion )

df -k -v gives

Code:
/          /dev/root            871678974  63965476 807713498     8%

i.e it shows used blocks (1024) = 63965476 whereas du shows 38253272

I know that du is primarily for directory and file contents and df for partition but 38 gb and 63 gb are a big difference . Is 25 gb being taken by filesystem contents ???

regrads,

dexter
