I've tried hunting google and various archives for some hint that someone has seen & solved this before, but I am apparently not using the right search terms:

I recently set up a linux box (older, 2.5 G HD, i386, PIII-233,
the latest Woody dist) and I mounted /usr and /usr/local as
separate filesystems, the former with 600 Meg of space, the
latter with 1000 Meg. However, df reports them BOTH as having
600 Meg, and stranger, when I drop a file into one, it
increases the used space for both filesystems, as though one
were just a symlink to the other!

Both are primary partitions, if that makes a difference.

Has anyone seen this?

Having played around with it a fair bit, I am thinking about
reinstalling, with one as a primary and one as a logical,
but if there is a quicker, easier solution, I'd love to
know it.
