Morning Gustin,
Thanks very much for the suggestion, that goes someway to making the results
more readable, however, this still looks to me as if only 671mb is registered
as being used on the fs:
voyage:/# du -Pacmx --max-depth=1 . |sort -g
0 ./dev
0 ./initrd.img
0 ./initrd.img-2.6.23-486-voyage
0 ./proc
0 ./root
0 ./sys
0 ./tmp
0 ./vmlinuz
0 ./vmlinuz-2.6.23-486-voyage

8 ./etc
8 ./home
18 ./lib
25 ./rw
181 ./var
414 ./usr
671 .
671 total
However, quite clearly df -h is stating otherwise:
voyage:/# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 2.0G 1.9G 0 100% /
udev 10M 20K 10M 1% /dev
/dev/disk/by-label/ROOT_FS

/dev/disk/by-label/ROOT_FS
2.0G 1.9G 0 100% /dev/.static/dev
tmpfs 126M 0 126M 0% /lib/init/rw
tmpfs 126M 0 126M 0% /dev/shm
tmpfs 8.0M 0 8.0M 0% /rw/tmp
This problem is also stopping things such as MySQL running as they're throwing
an error which says there isn’t enough space left on the device.
Cheers for any further ideas.
Thanks,
Rob

I use "du -Pacmx --max-depth=1 . |sort -g"
This will force the output to be in MB, and then sort and total the
results. I have an alias in my .bashrc for this as it is kinda
cumbersome to type every time.

Not really, it says that your disk is full. There are a hundred
possible causes, and corruption is not the most likely (but still possible).
