I'm having trouble understanding whats happening with du. I measured disk usage of /home/joe/ and got this:
Code:
root@Squeeze:/mnt/backup/squeeze/backup.0/home# du -hsc ./*
229M ./backup
18G ./joe
18G total
and when I measured inside /joe/ I got this:
Code:
root@Squeeze:/mnt/backup/squeeze/backup.0/home/joe# du -hsc ./*

Why does one give me 4G more when I'm measuring the same files?
Thanks
