[PATCH 04/12] mkfs.minix: remove unuseful code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Checks about inodes vs block sizes does not add much robustness.  Both
values are derived at compilation time from struct minix_inode size, and
they form full definition circle.

Bad block check for none-block devices should not be supressed, user
requested it so let him have it.

Check for st_rdev == 0x0300 || st_rdev == 0x0340 was unreachable.
