So I am! Most of it, 76%, as a matter of fact!
I'm sorry to sound like such a tenderfoot, but I'm completely at a loss to
understand -- assuming these utilities work correctly on 1.4.2 -- how du
and df can disagree.
What should I do? Is the filesystem necessarily corrupted? dump wd0a,
newfs it, and restore? Use tar, so I traverse the directory hierarchy?
Or just boot single user and fsck it? Or reëxamine my assumptions?
thanks again.
