    This part looks suspicious:

        for f in range(len(free) - 2):
        disk_map[free[f]] = disk_map.pop(max(disk_map.keys()))

    You’re always moving exactly len(free) - 2 blocks, but that doesn’t sound to be correct in all cases. If you consider the following input: 191, you only need to move one block, and not seven.

      I’m always moving one (file)part at a time, so that should be fine… I think.
