Hi,
I just try to get a Raspberry Pi up and running. I use a FreeBSD
installation to do this:
FreeBSD X220.alogt.com 10.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 10.1-PRERELEASE #44
r270870: Mon Sep 1 08:46:27 WITA 2014
erich at X220.alogt.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/X220 amd64
For some reason I did
[X220]/rescue (root) > du *
6.6M [
12K dhclient-script
4.0K nextboot
6.6M total
[X220]/rescue (root) >
A plain du gives this:
[X220]/rescue (root) > du
6.6M .
6.6M total
[X220]/rescue (root) >
If I do the same inside the directory containing /rescue for the
Raspberry, I get a list ending with these lines:
5.7M unxz
5.7M vi
5.7M whoami
5.7M xz
5.7M xzcat
5.7M zcat
5.7M zfs
5.7M zpool
768M total
This is what I also would have expected for the amd64 directory.
Why does du stop after [ but includes the two scripts?
Of course, all the other files are also in this directory as shown by
ll:
total 931792

Does somebody have any ideas?
