Just a quick query about the above really. Just playing around, I went in to Diskdrake and shrank the /home directory by about 30gb and installed Slackware in the space created. I couldn't get the bootloader to fire up the Slackware partition however (I could only get in to it from a boot disk) and not being too bothered I removed Slackware. I then went back in to diskdrake and resized the /home directory back up again.

Now, however, Diskdrake reports /dev/hda6 mounted on /home at 142gb (95%) whereas

$ df -h

gives me /dev/hda6 111G 15G 97G 14% /home

which doesn't seem to match up. Is it something to do with Slackware formatting the partition as reiserfs and Mandrake using ext3?
