Difference between df -k and du -sh
The problem: I receive messages that I cannot write to disk.
The symptoms:
df -h
- Size 17G
- Used 17G
- Avail 0 Use% 100%
- Mounted on /myFolder Other filesystems have reasonable space
du -sh /myFolder
- 4.7G
Disk Analyzer GUI for /myFolder
- 5.4GB
I also know that a few weeks ago Disk Analyzer and du reported 8GB in this folder. I've tried reading the man pages and a number of the du and df articles here and delivered by Google, but I don't know where my disk space has gone.
I am quite green when it comes to linux, so don't be afraid to dumb down your answers too much.
