After an uneventful installation on my Mac IIcx, I received some errors from
sendmail, complaining about lack of disk space. I was surprised to see the
following output from df:

Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/sd0a      190122   168250     2859    98%    /
/dev/sd0g      286321   259602    -1914   101%    /usr
/dev/sd0e      317210   286873    -1384   100%    /var
kernfs              1        1        0   100%    /kern
procfs              4        4        0   100%    /proc

Those numbers are impossible. "sd0a" is only 32MB, "sd0g" is 100MB.
"sd0e" is also only 32MB. The entire drive is only 200MB!

Everything else seems to work fine. I can create files in /usr, /var, and
anywhere else on the drive. But the broken file system size seems to hose a
number of programs, including sendmail. Other than that, the
system functions well. (Or at least appears to).

I searched the last 3 months or so of the mac68k mailing list, but saw no
reference to this, so I decided to see if anyone else had noticed this
before. Please help if you can, as I would like to have sendmail working on
this machine...

Oh, in case it could help someone diagnose the problem, here is a dump of
"disklabel sd0": (I removed the comments about cylinders at the end of the
file because my mailer chewed on them a bit)
