Ok, i have too harddisks in my machine, one (hdb) with 80gb (hdb1) and the other 1 (hda) with 40gb, splitted into a 200mb (hda1) for the kernel, a 4gb (hda2) with the gentoo installation and a 36gb (hda3) partition. now i wanted to backup some files (something around 15gb :P ) from the 80gb plate to the 36gb partition. i got an error message not enough diskspace. deleted some files and wondered cauz there is nearly nothing on this partition. so i checked the system monitor. it displays me hda3 3,7gb! the filetypes are for hda1=ext3 hda2=reiserfs hda3=reiserfs hdb1=ntfs. Can anybody help me?

run `df -h` to make sure the file systems are being reported correctly ... also check `mount` to make sure each filesystem has been mounted correctly ... if you mount say an ext3 as reiserfs, you'll get weird things like that ...
I have tried 'df -h' but it reports my /dev/hda3 wrong too. is it in any file listed how big my hds are? or what else can i do?
Filesizes are listed in /proc/ide/hda/capacity Check if "fdisk -l /dev/hda" and "fdisk -l /dev/hdb" report "normal" settings. Perhaps the partitioning is wrong (either by human error or by any kind of bug).
all right there :/ _________________________________________________________________ Disk /dev/hda: 41.1 GB, 41110142976 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4998 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/hda2 14 500 3911827+ 83 Linux /dev/hda3 501 4998 36130185 83 Linux _________________________________________________________________ Disk /dev/hdb: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 * 1 9729 78148161 7 HPFS/NTFS _________________________________________________________________ Any ideas left? :/
please paste a) mount b) /etc/fstab

Could you please add the output of "fdisk -l /dev/hda"?
Sorry, i only have the information i posted coz of a very hard crash and a reinstallation. sry
So I think this is a case of CANTFIX
db issue
