I've got something similar to this going on. Here's the data: uname -a yields: Linux eRuiServer 2.6.31-19-generic-pae #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 02:29:51 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

This is reasonably consistent with the value reported by du, which is 12,771,740kb. But for /dev/sda1, which has everything else, df reports it is using 22,204,940kb and is 98% full; and debugfs mirrors that. But if we look at what du reports for everything besides /home (we also ignore media too because that is just an external disk) it totals out to 4,398,960kb which isn't even close to 98%. I spent most of the day trying to find what is going on here but have failed. The debugfs led me to this discussion. When I boot my server it is complaining that the root directory is almost full. Does anybody think my problem is related to this one? Any suggestions on what I can do?
