I'm currently using a 7300 with a 20MB hard disk.  I just did a df -t to
see what the total disk space was available.  I will need a larger/faster
hard disk before I turn the system over to the users.  a df -t reported
that there was a total of 14.21MBs (<3MB left free).  With overhead and
such, that seems reasonable.  Couple of questions:

    1)	Does this include swap space?

    2)  I'm need to be able to calculate how much a 40 or a 60MB drive
	would give me (in user space).  Whats an easy way to get a good
	estimate?  Would an xMB drive give me proportionately the same
	amount of usable space?  If so, then I could expect only 28.42MB
	and 42.63MB from a 40 and 60MB drive respectively.

    3)	Using du -s / and df, I caculated 13.67MB.  What happen to the
	0.54MB?

Thanx.
