 find no aliease for "ls -l"

df returns the following. So looks like there is restill about 40 G on the
partition.


ilesystem       Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/aacd0s1a     97G     57G     33G    64%    /
devfs            1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /dev
devfs            1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /var/named/dev



Thanks
mark
