Could you tell me where this is documented?

And also, though I don't know whay Bas Hendricks' machine didn't
partition and format properly, what he reports just isn't right for a
RaQ4.  Here's what my df -ah and cat /proc/partitions show on a 12 gig
hard drive:

[admin conf]$ df -ah
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1             726M  476M  250M  66% /
none                     0     0     0   -  /proc
/dev/hda3             194M   15M  179M   8% /var
/dev/hda4              11G  890M  9.8G   8% /home
none                     0     0     0   -  /dev/pts
[admin pts]$ cat /proc/partitions
