On a ext3 fs:
fast:/mnt/tmp# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 958488 521864 387936 58% /mnt
fast:/mnt/tmp# cat /dev/zero > zr
cat: write error: No space left on device
fast:/mnt/tmp# ls -l
total 436624
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 446660608 Jun 18 00:23 zr
fast:/mnt/tmp# rm zr
fast:/mnt/tmp# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 958488 521864 387936 58% /mnt
Is this an expected behaviour?.. Yeah, it is nice to have more space than
you think you have, but...
Thanks
