I was just looking at the stats for this thread: 38 total replies (not

helpful responses (thank you Aioanei, Theirry and Bob) which led me to
more specific Googling, which led to my ultimate solution.
Have we lost our way a bit on this list?
Only partly. Sometimes, the correct answer to an original question
is, "Why the heck do you want to do something as stupid, useless,
pointless as <blah>?"
Hopefully it leads OP to more deeply cogitate upon his original
question, and either (a) realize his mistake or (b) further
elucidate the problem by narrowing the focus or adding more details
that weren't in the original problem statement. Otherwise, OP gets
defensive and only in the middle of the thread do we learn
interesting things like ReiserFS picking up formatted-over blocks.
