Now things are really bogus. This attempts to waste 1% of the available disk space by removing the `-m 0' that compensated for the bogus `-m 1' in the previous commit. However, boot floppies are normally only written by root and the minfree restriction doesn't apply to root, so using the wrong value for minfree mainly causes confusing output from df (provided it is below 5% so that it doesn't affect space optimization). Have I mentioned the other bogusness in the newfs line yet? We use the newfs default of 1 track per cylinder with 4096 sectors per track. This causes warnings when the device size is not a multiple of 4096. These warnings are especially alarming when the device size is smaller than 4096, as it is for most boot floppies. It's not clear that space isn't wasted for data structures to handle the entire 4096 sectors on the last cylinder group. > > Submitted by: bde Erm, not quite. > > Revision Changes Path > 1.32 +1 -2 src/release/scripts/doFS.sh Bruce To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
