Subject: Discrepance between df/du/tar!

   Hello!

      I'm    running FreeBSD-2.0.5R and  there is   a missmatch between the
   occupied disk space 'df' and 'du/gtar'!

      *	df:

	Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
	/dev/sd0a       68735    31516    31720    50%    /

      *	du -skx: 22943 

      *	with GNU level-0 backup script for root filesystem:

	tar cpvl --totals /: Total bytes written: 23142400

   where are the difference of approx 9 MB???

      These effect only  occures on the  root filesytem, the disk  usage on
   the other ones are o.k.

   Thanks

   Lars
