Human readable discrepancy in df?

[Clive Menzies]

Hi

Using the h flag produces a lower figure for "Used" and "Avail" than the
H flag.  However, "Size" doesn't change.  Does this mean that -h is not
basing Size on 1024 but 1000 bytes?

address@hidden:/usr/src$ df -h /home
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda16             12G  795M  9.9G   8% /home
address@hidden:/usr/src$ df -H /home
Filesystem             Size   Used  Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda16              12G   833M    11G   8% /home

Let me know if your need any further information.

Thanks

Clive
