Wellllllll.....I cured it - not solved it. In my last just recently posted message I speculated about the kernel and kdar. Decided to check.
I stated that after doing another kdar backup (4 files) the problem returned. Remember now, the backup was done by root to a different hard drive. I went in and deleted the files one by one on the other hard drive and watched the / directory diminish in size with KDiskFree.
How did you delete them, using 'kdar', or 'rm'?
I don't understand how deleting a file in a drive can have effect on another disk ussage... unless kdar does some kind of association "he" is aware of :-?
After deleting them all, my / directory returned to it's mormal size.
The df command was also normal showing only one hdb1 posting. Strange !! Seems impossible. Has to be some kind of bug.
"Next" time, try 'df /', not 'df /*'.
OR try proc 0 0 0 - /proc
df -alh /* | sort | uniq

It puts the headder out of place but at least the duplicates are eliminated. -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | /
