We also support M/O disks. Ext2 fs with a block size >= the block size of the media works well. 512byte FATfs needs loop. I've been using 2K media on and off for a long time. Our design limit is page size.
It all works fine in 2.2 and 2.4 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
