This also means you can't disable it:
chrisj@alice$ enable -n time
bash: enable: time: not a shell builtin
Not sure why time is a keyword (on a par with if, for etc.) rather than
a builtin, but there you go. If anyone has any enlightenment, I'd be
curious ;)

what inspired him to write his dictionary, and it seems it was in part
due to this admiration he chose the French-style spellings. Center

I correct myself, /dev/null exists, at least on my system (lenny), on
the underlying /dev with the minimal set of devices on there. So it
should never not exist as far as I can see. Did you do anything that
might have
a
journal on there.
If you're using ext3, dumpe2fs device will tell you how big that is.
