Remember under some z/Linux formatting there is 5% space for whatever
reason.

Subject: Minidisk vs. Linux Filesystem
I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue.
I'm building Redhat 5.1 linux servers under VM. I usually
define the server's minidisk under VM to accommodate the / filesystem
under linux. Unless I'm wrong, the specs are 850 K/Cyl(3390s). I do
the math and create the minidisk for the / directory under Linux. I get
it installed and do a 'df' command to see filesystem usage/size. I
noticed that the total filesystem space results are less than what I
expected to see. I know that during Linux installation, the minidisk is
linux-formatted. Is that where I'm losing disk space? Is there a
formula I can use to account for this?
