Have you run any hfs+ repair tools on this partition lately? Sounds
like it might help (just a shot in the dark).

Thanks for the hint but no such easy luck.
pdisk shows all the right partition sizes. What's confusing about this
is that du -h and df -h were showing the correct sizes a few weeks ago
(this is a server box). Now it's df -h that's off (and, presumably
nautilus uses df -h because nautilus too reports virtually no free
space).

I know this may sound silly but, what are the other partitions of the
drive. Could the missing space be there?
Need to know?
as root try pdisk
"pdisk /dev/hdc"
then
"pdisk -l"
This should show you what partitions are on the drive as well as the
size of each.
I just learned a little bit of "pdisk". So this is why I ask.
Hope this helps a lil bit, as it were.

Hello, I've got a bit of an odd situation.
I have an HFS plus partition that I mount and use in Linux. I have a
symlink to a directory in /mnt/macosx which appears in a Linux smb
share that I mount in OS X. I'm missing about 5G of space
according to
various Linux utilities:
df -h reports...
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdc8 7.7G 5.9G 1.5G 80% /
none 125M 0 125M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/hdc10 35G 28G 5.8G 83% /home
/dev/hdc7 25G 24G 1.7G 94% /mnt/macosx
du -h --max-depth=1 from /mnt gives...
/mnt/macosx is 19G
So, what's going on? I only just noticed it when I deleted a
directory
that contained about 4.3 GB of files this afternoon. When I
checked df
-h I only had 2.3 G free (when I had just deleted 4.3 GB from the
directory, symlinked to a smb share, mounted in the OS X 10.4.4
Finder).
Any guesses as to what's going on? Or ways to get Linux to agree on
the amount of space that's free?
PS Yes, I realise I probably shouldn't be playing with HFS plus and
smb and Mac OS X Finder.
Eric.
