Page size (typically a power of two larger than or equal to 12, i.e.,
4KB) and _alignment_ are critical in SSD applications.  Make
absolutely sure that the partition alignment is such that the
filesystem can ensure 4KB blocks starting at 4KB boundaries on SSDs,
or larger blocks starting on 4KB or larger boundaries.
