Got a simple question.
on my 80G harddrive, I originally had 4G files in it
and I used rm command to remove it all. Now my drive
should be totally empty.

But this is what I found when I typed df -H

/dev/ar0s1e 79G 2.0K 72G 0% /mountpoint

and if I typed df only without the -H parameter

/dev/ar0s1e 76928840 2 70774532 0% /mountpoint

My question is if the capacity is 0%, then how come
I only have 72G left? I should be able to get 79G,
right?
where has the 7G gone?

Thanks.

K.C.
