Hi,
He means a situation where you have something this this
You create a partion lets say /dev/hda1 you use it as you / partition you create a directory called /data and copy some data into it You then have a second partiton /dev/hda2 and you mount /dev/hda2 off of /data
This mean that the data originally copied to the /data directory on hda1 is still taking up space on hda1 but you cant see it.
In this case, if I mount my partition to, say, /mnt/tmp, it would still show the 'wrong' size. In my situation, it did not, so that indicates this is not my issue.
