Thank you for responding!

From the sticky note on the side of the machine.  I always record the disk layout there whenever I install a system.

/dev/sda1     62.7MB  Dell Utility                   0-7
/dev/sda2     1.9 GB   FAT 32 /Windows    8-268       (not mounted at startup)
/dev/sda3     Extended
/dev/sda5     2.0 GB   Linux Swap         269-530
/dev/sda6    20.0 GB  /                         531-3141
/dev/sda7   112.0 GB  /home           3142-17768


"df -h” Gives me strange results:


Filesystem		Size		Used		Avail		Use%		Mounted on
/dev/sda6			3.9G		133M		3.8G		4%			/
tmpfs			3.9G		0			3.9G		0%			/dev/shm
/dev/sda7			3.9G		133M		3.8G		4%			/home
