Depending on your OS, df may show data reported on 512 byte blocks. I
always use df -k for data reported in 1024 byte blocks.
df
Filesystem 512-blocks Free %Used Iused %Iused Mounted on
/dev/hd4 65536 22272 67% 1982 13% /
df -k
Filesystem 1024-blocks Free %Used Iused %Iused Mounted on
/dev/hd4 32768 11136 67% 1982 13% /
