Although I am aware that there is possible to explicitly specify a journal location using the -l agnum=X mkfs option, I am really curious about the resoning behind the default choice. Thanks in advance, Yannis Klonatos _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
