Here is my output using the switches you specified:
merwyn ~: df -h -m
Filesystem MB-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hda2 5483 1062 4137 20% /
/dev/hdb1 2919 151 2617 5% /home
/dev/sda1 988 211 726 23% /jaz
Now try using the df command with no switches and see what you get.
Mine says:
merwyn ~: df
Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hda2 5615309 1087741 4236792 20% /
/dev/hdb1 2990073 154801 2680647 5% /home
/dev/sda1 1011810 215172 744365 22% /jaz
The first ones make the switches display things slightly differently.
