It doesn't show both /var and /var/www, if shows just var.  However,
what I have mounted is /var/www.

[rodd at localhost ~]$ df -h

Past versions of fedora having shown any of these .  / or /boot are
actually part of my other fedora install on the same machine.  The root
partition for this install is labeled /1 and boot is a part of /1.
