    My setup:
    *--
    Software:
    Linux kernel 2.6.7-1.517 Architecture i686
    Fedora Core release 2.90 (FC3 Test 1)
    Hardware:
    model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.00GHz
    cpu MHz : 1994.800
    *--

    I'm seeing output from `df -h' that I've never seen before. Not sure
    when it started but I think it could only be a matter of days at most
    since I last ran `df -h' for some reason.

    Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
    [...]

    none 253M 0 253M 0% /dev/shm

    /dev/hdb11 12G 4.6G 6.0G 44% /news
    [...] some unnecessary stuff snipped

    Note the strange output for /dev/hda2 (/mnt/pack)
    What on earth does that mean?

    That partition actually has 2.6 gigs of data on it by `du' reconning:

    du -sh /mnt/pack
    2.6G /mnt/pack

    Its not a symlink or something:

      ls -ld /mnt/pack
    drwxr-xr-x 10 reader reader 4096 Sep 4 10:54 /mnt/pack

    So what is that output telling me?
