Fadia,

Try with 'fdisk -l'
this will give you all partition sizes.

"fdisk -l" for your whole space of hard disk
"df -h" for your partition which have been mounted
"pvscan" if you uses lvm

Hi

To get the free available space on disk you have to use'fdisk -l'
This will also give the existing sizes and free.
