Hammer & Screwdriver perhaps something along the following:
Code:
df -k | awk '{if($2>2) {v2=$2/(1024*1024) ; print $1"\t\t"v2}}'

displays the filesystem and the first column in converted GB
This logic can be continued for more columns of data.

I used that to get rid of the first line which held header text (at least in my implementation) from the df command. There are many other ways to do that.

Perhaps better...
Code:
df -k | awk '{if(NR==1) {print $1"\t\tGB-blocks"} else {v2=$2/(1024*1024) ; print $1"\t\t"v2}}'

which re-does the header

Code:
df -k
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used  .....

Thus, my excluding the 2nd field which mathematically was a 1.
See my other post for a better way, tracking based on NR (record number).
I just did the other fast, trying to show how awk and math could be used.

There is no "bdf -h" or "bdf -k" in HP-UX.

Please post the command you type to get disc free space output in normal units, the result from that command, and the expected converted output to your preferred units.
