os.statvfs (where available).

# statvfs-example-1.py

import statvfs
import os

st = os.statvfs(".")

print "preferred block size", "=>", st[statvfs.F_BSIZE]
print "fundamental block size", "=>", st[statvfs.F_FRSIZE]
print "total blocks", "=>", st[statvfs.F_BLOCKS]
print "total free blocks", "=>", st[statvfs.F_BFREE]
print "available blocks", "=>", st[statvfs.F_BAVAIL]
print "total file nodes", "=>", st[statvfs.F_FILES]
print "total free nodes", "=>", st[statvfs.F_FFREE]
print "available nodes", "=>", st[statvfs.F_FAVAIL]
print "max file name length", "=>", st[statvfs.F_NAMEMAX]

## sample output:
##
## preferred block size => 8192
## fundamental block size => 1024
## total blocks => 749443
## total free blocks => 110442
## available blocks => 35497
## total file nodes => 92158
## total free nodes => 68164
## available nodes => 68164
## max file name length => 255
