I mounted /dev/dasda1 on /mnt so that du wouldn't traverse all of the mounted

Running  du -B 4k /mnt/ | sort +0nr | less - reveals this:

54846   /mnt/
31154   /mnt/dev

If a "ls -lSrh /mnt/dev/" doesn't show you anything, you'll likely need to look 
at the output from lsof to see if something is allocated in /dev/ that is a file and not 
a device or pipe.

If you please!
ls -Sharl /mnt/dev

Don't forget the hidden files.
