Do a "df" in your XTerminal and you'll notice that the partition mounted under /home/user/MyDocs is around 28GByte in size. A 2GByte partition is mounted under /home/user and "the rest" is kind of available under / in the shape of 233MBytes.

it is a confusion between memory chip specs and partitioning...

guys, sorry to be a pain but could you tell me how to save different commands in x-terminal, so i don't have to type in the commands that i use all the time.
cheers.

You have to make a shellscript - this is just a plaintext file that you can execute like a .BAT file in Windows. For example this one will show you the reason for the last boot

Code:

#! /bin/sh

cat /proc/bootreason

You can handily run them from anywhere when you put them in /home/user/

Now you make it executable. Let's say you named the file bootreason. You enter:

chmod ug+x bootreason

Then you can handily run it from anywhere by simply entering

~/bootreason

You can do a lot more with shellscripts like accepting arguments, just do some searching.
