Hi,

I've checked out 2.4.4-xfs  from cvs (i think this is the head branch)
as I need to desperately access an Octane drives.

The problem is the Octane has been formatted with a cluster size of 512
bytes and the xfs driver for linux seems to only support 4096 bytes and
therefore wont mount it.

Any info on support for variable cluster sizes the driver supports ?

Error reported by mount :

XFS: Trying to mount file system with blocksize 512 bytes
XFS: Only page-sized (4096 bytes) blocksize currently works.
XFS: SB validate failed


Best regards

Rob Fielding.
