Hey man, throw an encrypted drive in the mix and it’s anyone’s guess what a disk usage tool will find. How does df look? du -hx ./ | sort -h

The -x will prevent du from leaving the filesystem.

Output says 12tb, I mean it’s not exactly a huge deal to not have dolphin the right space info just weird that started happening out of nowhere

Its definitely interesting how dolphin is reporting your space usage. So is the encrypted disk a file or a partition? Could it be compressed?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
