Hi Andreas.

Apologies,I still have not understood.

On a 8.04 Ubuntu Server

Filesystem    Type    Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1      xfs    461G  118G  343G  26% /
varrun       tmpfs    4.0G   72K  4.0G   1% /var/run

udev         tmpfs    4.0G   32K  4.0G   1% /dev
devshm       tmpfs    4.0G     0  4.0G   0% /dev/shm
lrm          tmpfs    4.0G   43M  3.9G   2%
/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/volatile
/dev/sda5     ext3    464M   28M  412M   7% /boot

On a 10.04 Ubuntu Server

Filesystem    Type    Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1      xfs    522G  645M  521G   1% /
none      devtmpfs     36G  224K   36G   1% /dev

none       debugfs    522G  645M  521G   1% /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs
/dev/sda3     ext3    490M   27M  438M   6% /boot

Also I see the (none       debugfs    522G  645M  521G   1%
/var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs) and (/dev/sda1      xfs    522G  645M
521G   1% /) the same on Ubuntu server 10.04, Any clue ?

Thanks and Regards

Kaushal
