Gold Medal to Casper Dik <casper@holland.Sun.COM>, and honorable Mentions
to B C Hamshere <B.C.Hamshere@newcastle.ac.uk> and Tim Bradshaw
<tfb@aiai.ed.ac.uk>. The Problem was that depending on how exactly
you refer to the FS in Question, df will look up either in-Kernel or
on-Disk Versions of the respective Values. Giving the Mount Point or the
raw Device thus provides more current Data, while the Values given for
the Block Device may lag.
Thanks again,
J. Bern
