It prints just the root. (I.e. "/" appears alone on a line.) What is that saying? > Is it useful to go: > > find / \! -type d -fstype ext4 -print -prune This prints all the files in my two ext4 mounts under /, and none out of the ext3 mount or the other 'system' mounts like /proc or /sys. Importantly, it prints no files in the root fs itself. On my F13 system, it looks like it is printing ALL files under root except the ones in non-ext4 directories. (I interupted it before it finished.) > What does "man find" say about the -fstype test? I haven't an F15 box to > hand to check against. Does that paragraph differ from the man on F13? They are word-for-word identical. It appears to act as though / is NOT ext4. However: df / returns: /dev/mapper/vg00-lv_root 157237076 125230856 32006220 80% / and blkid /dev/mapper/vg00-lv_root returns: /dev/mapper/vg00-lv_root: UUID=<elided> TYPE="ext4" Here's more info: On my F13 system find /bin -fstype ext4 -print prints everything in /bin (which is an ordinary dir under /). On my F15 system the same command prints nothing. I'm thoroughly confused.
