$ du -b m n 2 m 772 n $ du m n 1 m 1 n $ du -B 512 m n 2 m 2 n I thought the info page said Block size ========== The block size used for display is independent of any filesystem block size. I wanted to see how many blocks it would use on a 512 block system. Perhaps reword the info. It seems I must move the files to a 512 block system before du will tell me. By the way, -h should emit an error when used with things that make it less human. Or maybe still say something. Blocks perhaps. $ du -hB 512 m n 2 m 2 n
