Hi. du seems to miss files/directorys on vfat filesystems. Only a certain amount of the filesystem (which seem to correspond to almost exactly 100000 files) will be processed, for the rest of the filesystem the following error is printed, for each remaining directory: du: `foobar': No such file or directory
Probably related: I had a similar problem in an older version of slocate/updatedb (Ubuntu 6.10), where whole subtrees of that disk would be missing in the database, but haven't had this problem with current versions. Also, "find" will always find all files. version info: standard Ubuntu 7.10 coreutils 5.97-5.3ubuntu3 du (GNU coreutils) 5.97 Linux hobbes 2.6.22-14-386 #1 Sun Oct 14 22:36:54 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux disk data: /dev/hdb5 on /mnt/hdf5 type vfat (rw,utf8,umask=007,gid=46) /dev/hdb5 132969600 110368960 22600640 84% /mnt/hdf5 Thanks, Cheers, Wolfram -- +-----+-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 8-P | Wolfram Kresse [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.wkresse.de | +-----+-------------------------------------------------------------------+ Data: There is a slight malfunction in the advanced bioelectric dilithium singularity.
