Description Cristian Gafton 1998-11-18 02:32:22 UTC

With a new 100GB (yes, I said 100GB) hard drive my company
purchased, I
found a problem with mkfs.  It does not display the inodes
correctly
because there are over 9999 (12049 to be more exact) and
when it hits
10000 it starts scrolling all over the screen.

We need to get one of those drives first.
Also, display problems when doing mke2fs are a low priority problem.

this should be fixed in the next release. Currently, apart from the
display problem mke2fs seems to work okay.
