CentOS 6.2. I have a 2TB drive, one partition, which is used for online backups. It filled up the other day. I moved a couple of b/u directories off it, and deleted the originals, which should have given me 42G free. I also reduced the reserved blocks by 1/3rd.

I've just finished an fsck, which it needed anyway, and in which there was a problem in an HTREE directory node.

df *still* tells me that there are zero bytes free.

Clues?

A 2TB drive is 2048 GB.

If it was 100% full, and if you freed up 42GB, then it would be:

2006/2048 = 98% full (well, 97.95% to be exact).

so it would only show 2% space free max anyway.
