DF(1) 386BSD Reference Manual DF(1)
NAME
df - display free disk space
SYNOPSIS
df [-ikn] [file | filesystem ...]
DESCRIPTION
Df displays statistics about the amount of free disk space on the
specified filesystem or on the filesystem of which file is a part.
Values are displayed in 512-byte per block block counts, unless the -k
option is specified, or the BLOCKSIZE environment variable is set (see
below). If neither a file or a filesystem operand is specified,
statistics for all mounted filesystems are displayed.
The following options are available:
-i Include statistics on the number of free inodes.
-k The block counts are forced to be in 1K (1024 8-bit bytes) size
blocks.
-n Print out the previously obtained statistics from the
filesystems. This option should be used if it is possible that
one or more filesystems are in a state such that they will not be
able to provide statistics without a long delay. When this
option is specified, df will not request new statistics from the
filesystems, but will respond with the possibly stale statistics
that were previously obtained.
ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES
BLOCKSIZE If the environmental variable BLOCKSIZE is set, the block
counts will be displayed in units of that size block.
BUGS
The -n flag is ignored if a file or filesystem is specified.
