I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my 320 GB hard disk. I don't have any other operating system other than Ubuntu on my hard drive.
The problem is Ubuntu is using extra disk space. According to disk usage analyzer in Ubuntu, total file system capacity is 284.8 GB (used 194.0 GB available 90.7 GB)
The file system folder is using only 10.7 GB space. Then why it's showing 194.0 GB as used? I'm confused. Please help!
