Hey everyone, ive been chipping away at this question and and every thing i try dosnt work.

I have tried the following
• ls -la /etc/vda
•ls -il /etc/vda
•df -h /etc/vda

the df command has showed me 3.9 gig and i have tried 3.900 and 3900 for the format they ask and nothing works, I am sure im missing something here, but can anyone give me a hint or point me in the direction of what i should google to see what i can find.

Thanks in advance

Hey dude, they mention a method of listing the files with fdisk that is probably better for getting the answer. Also read the question a few times, its almost like a trick question.
