It enables the mounting filesystems that have a larger blocksize than the page size. F.e. the following is possible on x86_64 and i386 that have only a 4k page size. mke2fs -b 16384 /dev/hdd2 mount /dev/hdd2 /media ls -l /media .... Do more things with the volume that uses a 16k page cache size on a 4k page sized platform.. Hmmm... Actually there is nothing additional to be done after the earlier cleanup of the macros. So just modify copyright.
