In a few instances here, Used + Avail != Size.

Where has the rest of the space gone?

When you create (via mke2fs, for example) a filesystem, you will usually see a warning that some of its space (5% is typical) is being reserved for the superuser. That reserved portion is not shown as "available" in a "df" listing (whether it will show in "used" depends, naturally enough, on whether it is being used).


So what you are seeing is quite normal.
