Using the /com/lst command, the sizes reported are more like what you'd expect. It appears like du reports the 'actual' disk space used (although alot of the space is wasted) If you will recall, the DN10000 uses 4k blocks for files, whereas the motorola machines use 1k blocks. That would explain why the du listing is about ~4x larger on file sizes. $ bldt **** Node 2F168.2548C **** "//daytona" Domain/OS kernel(10), revision 10.3, August 22, 1990 4:37:53 pm $ du //daytona/sau10 8 /sau10/cmd 84 /sau10/help 25204 /sau10/scan/cpu 43060 /sau10/scan/graphics 21156 /sau10/scan/memory 564 /sau10/scan/utility 90020 /sau10/scan 96308 /sau10 $ lst //daytona/sau10 (dir) 8 //daytona/sau10/cmd (dir) 72 //daytona/sau10/help (dir) 6304 //daytona/sau10/scan/cpu (dir) 10768 //daytona/sau10/scan/graphics (dir) 5292 //daytona/sau10/scan/memory (dir) 144 //daytona/sau10/scan/utility (dir) 22544 //daytona/sau10/scan (dir) 28820 //daytona/sau10 *** *** on //daytona (DN10000): *** $ args "a" >/tmp/test $ ld -a /tmp/test sys type blocks current type uid used length attr rights name file nil 4 2 P prwx- test 1 entry listed, 4 blocks used. *** *** on //gotham (DN3550): *** $ args "a" >/tmp/test $ ld -a /tmp/test sys type blocks current type uid used length attr rights name file nil 1 2 P prwx- /tmp/test 1 entry listed, 1 block used.
