I had the problem a *long* time ago while 'newfs'ing very large drives
without partitions and with blocks that where too small.
Can't remember exactly if this was vinum-specific or went from somewhere else.
can't either remember the disk and block size i used.. But i think some
signed int limited my block size choice.
If this may help, try bigger blocks.
By the way, what is "this error" ? :)
