I got installed Fedora 11 on my harddrive (sdb) its physical size is 320GB.
during installation i use custom layout to set swap partition to 512MB
and set "/" partition using ext3 to maximum allowable partition size
then when i issue df -h i got this :
Code:
[root@g1 ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1 16G 1.9G 14G 13% /
tmpfs 246M 0 246M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 917G 853G 18G 98% /media/shared
/dev/sdc1 917G 407G 464G 47% /media/shared2
which is my / partition is 16GB of size. where it should be ~320GB.
when i see using "fdisk /dev/sdb":
Code:
Disk /dev/sdb: 320.0 GB, 320071851520 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0xfd27fd27
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 1 38848 312044353 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2 38848 38913 524288 83 Linux
it seems the disk is recognized as 320GB and /dev/sdb1 partition using nearly maximum
cylinders at 38848 of maximum 38913
so why "df" see it 16GB size not 320GB ?
what's the problem
Linear Mode
