Any way to make this happen with > --protofile? mkfs.xfs doesn't have a '--protofile' option. It has a '-p <file>' option for specifying a protofile - is that what you mean? Regardless, there is no xattr support in mkfs/proto.c at all - it's never been supported, and I don't recall anyone ever asking for it. Hence it would have to be implemented from scratch if you need it. -Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
