Hi,

After installing mandrake's alpha distro I couldn't access the disk with milo. It seems that they format the partitions using the "sparse superblock" option and a blocksize of 4K. A workaround was easy (after the mandrake installer formats the drive use the shell to reformat the drive with the right options and restart the installation, this time not formatting the drive).

My question: is "sparse superblock" support planned for the future?

Thanks & keep up the good work,
