Filesystem size and free space

[Andrei Kolu]

Hi,

due to migration from Windows Server 2003 NTFS filesystem to FreeBSD 
7.1Beta2 UFS+softupdates filesystem I encountered strange problem. NTFS 
formatted filesystem seen in FreeBSD as read-only and exactly 500GB with 
28GB free space but after format to UFS disk shows up as 484GB and after 
copying back files that was on same disk (from ntfs) UFS filesystem 
shows that I got -33GB (minus?) of free space. What's wrong? Is UFS so 
inefficient filesystem or it is a bug?
