From: Shantonu Sen <ssen@MIT.EDU>

System name:		w20-575-34.mit.edu
Type and version:	i686 9.0.19
Display type:		XFree86 3.3.6a Mach64

Shell:			/bin/athena/bash
Window manager:		sawfish

What were you trying to do?
Use sysinfo to find out partition information

What's wrong:
athena% sysinfo
...
	P A R T I T I O N   I N F O R M A T I O N

hda1            is a 31 MB Linux filesystem partition in use as /boot
hda2            is a 12.6 GB Extended DOS partition 
hda5            is a 518 MB Linux swap or Solaris filesystem partition in use as swap
hda6            is a 133 MB Linux filesystem partition in use as /usr/vice/cache
hda7            is a 908.9 GB ext2 partition in use as /

What should have happened:
hda7 is not 908GB. It is closer to 12GB, as reported by df:
athena$ df
