So I added -i 2048 to the newfs (during install). So the newfs command line is newfs -b 16384 -f 2048 -i 2048 Should I be changing the -f value since I changed -i ? Any help is appreciated. -- Hari Bhaskaran To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
