Hi all:
I'm pretty new to Linux and still trying to figure out the ropes, apologies for a simple question. But.... Are there equivalent commands in linux for the DOS dir and chkdsk commands? In particular, I'd like to determine how much space is left/occupied on a particular drive.

There's about 12-13 switches you can use with it- use df --help to explain what the switches are.
