Re: Help with space

Yes it's an ancient 32 bit machine.  There must be a complex bug involved as the system, when originally mounted, claimed the correct free space and only as used over time did the discrepancy between used and free grow.  I'm afraid I chose btrfs because it appeared capable of breaking the 16 tera limit on a 32 bit system.  If this isn't the case then it's incredible that I've been using this file system for about a year without difficulty until now.
