       -f	       Report on the disk free space, including	 the  starting
		       block  address of the free space, number of blocks, and
		       unused partitions.

       -h	       Omit the headers from the normal output.

       *      80 sectors/track
       *       9 tracks/cylinder
       *     720 sectors/cylinder
       *    2500 cylinders
       *    1151 accessible cylinders
       *
       * Flags:
       *   1: unmountable

       ALTSCTR			    0x09
       CACHE			   0x0a
       RESERVED			   0x0b

       The data in the Flags column above indicates how the partition is to be
       mounted, as follows:

       Name			   Number
       MOUNTABLE, READ AND WRITE   0x00
       NOT MOUNTABLE		   0x01
