Quick message. Maybe Im being stupid! running Red Hat enterprise 4.

When I run the command "df -k" I only get shown the logical volume usage. I dont get a list of all folders /tmp /etc /dev... etc.

Even issueing "df -k /tmp" it just shows same info system.
df -all gives:
/proc,/boot and /shm


Im used to HP-UX and only recently started using red hat. Am I missing something? Cant find anything on red hat knowledgebase or in man pages.

Thanks.
 
issue [tt]fdisk -l /dev/sda[/tt] (or whatever your disk drive is) and take a look to the partitions, I'm quite sure you have only 2 partitions: / and swap

Cheers.

Maybe you want:
[tt]cd / && du -sh *[/tt]
That will give you disk usage for each directory, summarized and human-readable (don't know if that's what they really mean, but it's how I remember them and it seems to work ;-))

Code:
du -sh /*
[code]
would avoid the cd /
