If the OMD_ROOT was located on a filesystem, which started with a character other than '/', then diskspace plugin would failwith the error:

File "/omd/sites/monitor/bin/diskspace", line 166, in _get_free_space
  if filesystem[0] == "/":
IndexError: string index out of range

This crash has been fixed. The call to df -P -B1 was replaced with a direct call to os.statvfs.
