Ok, this shows me every file on /boot, only ~15Mb, which is more that |
| 42 |
I had calculated before. |

Almost the same with a graphical view. |

You might be right, but still, we have found out that the files are |
| 56 |
~15Mb, if the partition has a size of 40Mb, is it possible that |
| 57 |
reiserfs is using almost 25Mb for storing data? |
