Message-ID: <alpine.LSU.2.00.0903040001120.12969@fbirervta.pbzchgretzou.qr> Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2009 00:07:17 +0100 (CET) From: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@...ozas.de> To: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org Subject: ext4: odd values for mkfs.ext4 -i Hi, Is it ok that e2fsprogs-1.41.4 allows odd values for -i, such as in `mkfs.ext4 -i 2047`? If inodes were arranged every 2047 bytes, they would not be aligned, which would mean one extra sector would have to be read every now and then, does not it? Should odd values be rejected? [BTW: this mailing list address should be mentioned at e2fsprogs.sf.net] Jan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
