running sfill, drive is showing 102% capacity and a negative value for available.

How-To-Repeat: Manually fill drive (250 gig drive) and watch the available space after it passes 0

That's caused by the so-called "minfree" reserved space on the file

"9.26. How is it possible for a partition to be more than 100% full?"
