It seems that df(1) notices disk partitions that are managed by the
Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and changes its listing format to make
two lines of output. Example, best viewed with fixed-width font:
* [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]$ df -h
* Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
* /dev/sda2 7.9G 449M 7.1G 6% /
* /dev/mapper/VG00-LV06
* 40G 9.7G 28G 26% /data
* /dev/mapper/VG01-LV01
* 79G 31G 44G 42% /data2
* none 633M 0 633M 0% /dev/shm
* /dev/mapper/VG00-LV01
* 9.9G 538M 8.9G 6% /home
Note that lines have been edited to begin with * to discourage gmail
from reformatting the white space.
I painfully went through the process to rename VolGroup00-LogVol00 to
VG00-LV00, etc., just to make the names shorter, but this did not
help.
So shell scripts that parse df(1) output by looking for lines that
begin with /dev no longer work as intended. The data that belongs to
the /dev/xxx name is now on the following line, if it's a partition
managed by LVM.
