    I am unable to replicate this with df -P. Are you sure you're not using df -Ph?

  • Check whether df is aliased to df -h. Use command df -P or df -P if it is.

Use the -B option to specify the specific "blocksize" you want all values reported in. The blocksize is expressed with an integer and units. From the man page I have:




The SIZE argument is an integer and optional unit (example: 10K is
10*1024). Units are K,M,G,T,P,E,Z,Y (powers of 1024) or KB,MB,...
(powers of 1000).




For example, df -BM will print all the sizes in megabytes. (It will override a previous -h in case that is set in an alias; e.g., df -h -BM is that same)
