Just installed iatkos v7 , updated to10.5.8 and everything seems swell. However something I've always had a problem with osx86 be it iatkos or leo4all is filesizes being misreported. Since Im dual booting with Windows 7, OS X is reporting filesizes that are totally off on both mac and windows partitions. My Windows partition is 500gb, and I just installed it fresh earlier today so I have almost nothing on it. Says I have 96gb left. The OSX disk says it has 05gbs left (out of 156gb). Strangely my external USB drive seems accurate to the readings, as is the System Partition that windows 7 uses.

 

I have a WD 640gb Carviar Black SATA2 drive. Im using the default AHCI drivers iatkos came with (assuming it was the right one for my mobo, see sig). Anyone else ever have these issues? How can I fix it? Frankly I want to automatically unmount the windows partitions as I have no need for them when in OSX, but editing fstab simply doesnt work for me, but I would like to get accurate space reading for the Mac drive.
