You're recent enough. :) mkfs.ext4 output should include the stripe info if it was found. printf(_("Block size=%u (log=%u)\n"), fs->blocksize, s->s_log_block_size); printf(_("Fragment size=%u (log=%u)\n"), fs->fragsize, s->s_log_frag_size); printf(_("Stride=%u blocks, Stripe width=%u blocks\n"), s->s_raid_stride, s->s_raid_stripe_width); printf(_("%u inodes, %llu blocks\n"), s->s_inodes_count, ext2fs_blocks_count(s)); etc. -Eric -- 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
