[wellylug] MRTG issues

Yeehaa!  Nice...

OK so the disk problem might be related to your config definition of
the disks, so check what order you have defined them.  ie. is the root
disk (dskPercent.1) actually defined first?

Disk /
Disk /var
...blah

I have not graphed disk space usage (although I can set it up and
see)...but it looks like you are attempting to grab info about
dskPercent.0 ... which may be confusing mrtg since I think it wants to
count up from 1 onwards...so your first disk defo should be
dskPercent.1

Try removing dskPercent.0 and see how that goes...otherwise I cant see
much else wrong.
