script to sum all partition size


Hi, I need to sum all the partition size so that I get total data size.

Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 3336 3011 156 96% /
/dev/sda1 99 12 83 12% /boot
none 125 0 125 0% /dev/shm

So the output shuold be 3336+99+125


Thanks for your help

Awk is a handy program for calulating totals from commands like df or ls -l:
Code:
df /dev/sda6 | awk 'BEGIN { total=0 } NR>1 { total = total + $2 } END {print total}'

...+125 ??? Huh???

Why are you adding this (shared memory) to the rest (physical disk partitions)?
