Hm. Although the values are configurable, it would be good if the default values shipped with the program were mentioned. May I also suggest breaking the sentence for easier reading. SUGGESTION: -T fs-type Specify how the filesystem is going to be used, so that mke2fs can choose optimal filesystem parameters for that use. The values included in default install are: small, floppy, news, largefile, largefile4. The exact values for current system are configure in /etc/mke2fs.conf. For more information, see manual page of mke2fs.conf(5). Jari -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
