Package: reiserfsprogs
Version: 1:3.6.19-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
I just created a new reiserfs volume with the following command:
mkreiserfs -d -l backup -b 8192 /dev/hda11
but mounting it fails with the error:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda11,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
and dmesg says:
ReiserFS: hda11: warning: sh-2011: read_super_block: can't find a
reiserfs filesystem on (dev hda11, block 32, size 2048)
ReiserFS: hda11: warning: sh-2021: reiserfs_fill_super: can not find
reiserfs on hda11
Other blocksizes just work fine.
Andreas

Version: 1:3.6.21-1
I just noticed that the freshly new uploaded 3.6.21 version of
mkfs.reiserfs warns if the blocksize isn't supported:
fz:~# mkfs.reiserfs -b 1024 -f reiserfs
Block sizes smaller than 4k are not supported.
fz:~# mkfs.reiseBlock sizes larger than 4k are not supported on all
architectures.
The newly created filesystem will not be mountable on this system.
rfs -b 8192 -f reiserfs
