The default size is 32768 bytes, and the smallest allowable size is 4096 bytes. .. Which only raises another question in my mind. I've got an old 40G pata I use for utilitarian duties. It has a hardware limit of 512b. Does FreeBSD then re-calculate to ensure the >=4k block size via CHS? Or does it remain unchanged? BTW the only point with this, was it all seemed quite simple to compensate, or cater to a mass of small files, and as such, seemed like a trivial nit. I just seemed like there were bigger fish to fry. :) Thanks for the reply. --Chris > _______________________________________________ > [email protected] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]" _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
