Hi, I have found the reason. The df output is correct. I use du to find out a big file (23GB) in /var, while the "Disk Usage Analyzer" only report /var with 308.8MB.
Many thanks.

I want to describe the bug more clearly as below: 1. The output of df is incorrect. /dev/sda1 28834716 26943508 426484 99% / Because: The size of all file in the partition /dev/sda1 < 4GB (All file/folder in directory / except /home which mounts other partition: /dev/sda2) while the size of root partition is 28GB. (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2603/4170362029_181be4e474_m.jpg) 2. I think the proplem is: df hasn't minus the size of /home which mount other partition.
