yes, for some reason the new mkfs.ext2 puts revision 2 on the new file
systems, even though the parameters that are now changeable (inode size) in
revision 2 are only capable of being set to the revision 1 values (At least
with Linux 2.2).
I used hexedit to change the revision back to 1.
I can cook up details later.
