Just for convenience, right? Technically there's no reason why we can't relax the location of the inode tables and bitmap blocks without going to meta_bg. My inclination is to keep the options as orthogonal as possible, and use mke2fs.conf to allow the user to conveniently set up filesystems with the appropriate configuration parameters. - Ted - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
