#36 free disk space check fails in some cases

[Bob McGowan]

You use 'df -Tm' to determine available space for processing. This works OK in most cases but fails in some, due to device name length.

I have a system that uses software raid, and the created raid device name is too long, so 'df -Tm' prints the name on one line followed by the details on a second line. This changes the number of fields from 7 to 6, for the last line, and selects the percent used value for the 'size'.

I don't see anyplace where the extra 'Type' value is used so I removed the 'T' option and changed the awk command to print '$4' rather than '$5'. This seems to work fine for getting disk size only.

You might want to consider testing for the number of fields in the last line:

... | awk '{if($NF == 7) # it's one line
print $2
else
print $1}'`

in any2vob line 294.

Could you please test with 0.36 beta and report if it fixes the problem:

It is better using just the -P option for 'df'....
Solving the problems instead of working around them.
