Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 63G 11G 49G 18% /
tmpfs 506M 0 506M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda2 21G 11G 9.9G 51% /media/windows
/dev 63G 11G 49G 18% /.dev
none 5.0M 2.8M 2.3M 55% /dev
Where does the /dev/sda3 come from then? I know(think...)
that /dev/sda4 is my extended partition. Sorry, this is all new to me
so I am trying to learn as fast as I can. Thanks!
