Hello!
I am seeing a strange thing on -current/macppc. Is it normal to happen?
I have got a
8: Apple_UNIX_SVR2 home 39845888 @ 53448832 ( 19.0G) S2 UFS k0
(pdisk)
g: 39845888 53448832 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 53024*-
92554*)
(disklabel)
partition, which as you can see is 19GB.
When I executed newfs -O 2 -i 4 /dev/wd0g, the operation was successful and I
noticed nothing until the partition got full in a few days. Then I checked it
and saw with df that it was about 2GB. Where were the other 17GB? Then I
newfs'd it without specifying the number if cylinders per inode (I guess...).
Now it worked great.
Why? Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks you very much
david
