I filled up my partition last night.
I deleted 5 gigs of movies.
The "Used" number went down to 125G.
The "Free" number stayed at 0.
I rebooted the system but it's still the same.

$ echo foo > foo
bash: echo: write error: No space left on device

$ df .
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1            136236548 130363620         0 100% /media/old_sys

$ mount | grep old
/dev/sda1 on /media/old_sys type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev)
/media/old_sys/home on /home type none (rw,bind)

This is with 2.6.37-rc5+.  Is there a way to debug this?

regards,
dan carpenter
