Possible Inaccurate File Size Problem
I have a Deskstar 80GB PATA drive with a 40GB Partition (sdb4) which serves as a store for BackupPC which is backing up 2 machines.
Currently File, Properties in Konqueror tells me that I have 51GB of files on this partition and 1.5GB free!
I have copied all the files (261,000) to a new hard disc (also a Deskstar 80GB) and the file size is still shown as 51Gb. This time however the free space indication seems correct.
Can I assume that there is an error somewhere? Is it likely to prove fatal? Can anybody suggest a fix short of deleting everything and starting a new set of backups?
