Dear Roland,

nice Quota support k/m/g/t/K/M/G/T to specify values in e.g. kB

But if specifying 8G the LAM user assumes this means 8GB. This is wrong,
because 8G in LAM  are 8TB. One block are 1024 Bytes. setquota
evaluates the units correctly:

  setquota dummyuser 8G 9G 0 0 /dev/mapper/local-home

sets 8GB softlimit for dummyuser.

I suggest also to make some comments about the meaning (numbers without
units means blocks and with units means Bytes) and the difference of g
and G in the question mark  over the fields.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
