Hi!

I've been going through the partitioning and formatting steps of setting up
a hard drive for NetBSD.

While using Mkfs, I noticed that it is allocating space as follows:

	512 bytes / sector
	8192 bytes / block
	4096 bytes / inode

This appears to be an inefficient way of setting this up. It seems like a
smaller block size would allow for more files to be stored on the disk.

Is there some upper limitation that to the number of blocks supported on a
drive? Or is this somehow related to MacOS limitatations?

This is my first try at installing NetBSD and so I'm curious.

Thanks, in advance, for any insight.

	-- Mark
