I have a Western Digital 1TB USB drive that came formatted for ntfs/Windows.
I reformatted the drive with systinstall to ufs but it gets the size wrong.
# df -h shows:
Yet Dolphin reports the drive size as 931.5 GiB which seems about right given that Sysinstall shows:
But fdisk looks wrong:
Compared to a 500GB spare drive I also have:
What's wrong?
