where do folders reside on partition

[rekha vn]

how can i know the hard disk partition in which the
various folders reside? 
the "find" command is giving only the path and not the
partition on which the folder resides.

with the command df -h
you will get the partition , with ur " find" output you can get the 
partition.

Use the "df" (as in: disc free-space) command. Try:

$ df path/to/file
$ man df
$ info df

You may also want to try the mount command, although df gives nicer output.

apollo:~
12 $ mount
/dev/hda6 on / type ext2 (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/hda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)
/dev/hdc5 on /home type ext2 (rw)
/dev/hda5 on /usr type ext2 (rw)
/dev/hda7 on /var type ext2 (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
