Connecting my new Seagate IDE 40Gb hard disk:

fdisk  creates a partition of 39078081 blocks 

mkfs -t ext2 /dev/hdb1 

df -h /dev/hdb1 gives me only 37G available - ( now it is 9.5G used + 25G
Avail = 34.5G )

Seems something goes wrong, I have lost about 15 % of disk space at this
moment, with the disk relatively empty.

Should I play with cluster size or any other parameters ?

Answering "RTFM" with URLs would be kindly appreciated.

Regards,
