I cannot create a 28TB ext4 filesystem. It keeps complaining about:
mke2fs: Size of device /dev/sdc1 too big to be expressed in 32 bits
This is still the case when using the latest e2fsprogs.
Ah, some further reading shows you cannot have more the 2^31-1 blocks. A limit which I want to cross here.
Can this limit be lifted?
XFS seems to be doing fine, but that's not what I want to use.
You seem to have CSS turned off. Please don't fill out this field.
http://kernelnewbies.org/Ext4#head-4e13646f1961f41bf99152eaf137d309723ac524 indicates that ext4 should support 48-bit addressing, but that e2fsprogs has yet to support this. Any kind of ETA? Thanks!
