[Gllug] Filesystem Holes

[t.clarke]

Re further comments on filesystem holes;

not sure I can make sense of the explanations given !

Just out of interest i catted /dev/zero to a file and took note of
the before and after filesystem 'df' statistics:

Before:  used 208792  free 263335
file size created 73310208
After:   used 280667  free 191460

Can't obviously say whether anything was physically written to the disc,
but the space certainly appears to have been allocated !
