lo lo,
seems like I discovered a problem in 8.22's df util:
$ cat /etc/fstab
/dev/md0 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/md1 /var/archive ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 defaults,noauto 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0
$ cat /etc/mtab
/dev/md0 / ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro 0 0
proc /proc proc rw,relatime 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw,relatime 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,relatime,size=4k,mode=755 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,relatime,mode=620 0 0
/dev/md1 /var/archive ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/var/archive/home /home none rw,bind 0 0
/var/archive/spool /var/spool none rw,bind 0 0
/var/archive/www /var/lib/www none rw,bind 0 0
$ df-8.22 -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 21G 8.8G 11G 46% /
tmpfs 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /dev
And where is /dev/md1 ?
running df from coreutils 8.21 shows different result:
$ df-8.21 -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 21G 8.8G 11G 46% /
tmpfs 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /dev
/var/archive/home 273G 244G 29G 90% /home
Still weird.
Trying with 8.20:
$ df-8.20 -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 21G 8.8G 11G 46% /
tmpfs 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /dev
/dev/md1 273G 244G 29G 90% /var/archive
Now ok.

The attached should handle this by giving precedence
to displaying real device nodes.
