What version are you using (df --version).

If you've just upgraded your kernel, be sure you've also upgraded
all corresponding libraries and utilities.

Here's the latest test release:
  ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/fetish/fileutils-4.1.4.tar.gz
Would you please see if you can reproduce the failure with it?
If so, the best would be if you could debug the problem.

If you build like this
  ./configure && make CFLAGS=-g
you can then do the following:

  gdb src/df

then type `run /dev/hdb1' and you'll
probably get the segfault.  Type `backtrace' for starters.
If you feel like exploring, use `list' to show a few lines
then `print SOME_VARIABLE'.  To do the latter you might have
to first do `up' a time or two if the backtrace showed you're
in kernel or C library code rather than in fileutils sources.
