Subject: Implement inode option to mkfs_opts command.
X-Git-Tag: 1.11.14~4
X-Git-Url: http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=24fb2c1255f751dad98dd1739b3ed3a52ce06f70

Implement inode option to mkfs_opts command.

This is needed because older versions of grub(for example in centos)
do not understand filesystems created with newer version of e2fsprogs.
By default in e2fsprogs 1.4+ creates partitions with 256 bit inode
size, and grub expect 128 bit size.
