Sorry. You are wrong! :-(
If the file system block size is what you want then the command is
dumpe2fs -h /dev/hda1 | grep "Block size:"
The answer is in bytes. This is for the ext2/3/4 file system on the
device /dev/hda1.
If the block device block size is what you want then the command is
blockdev --getsize64 /dev/hda1
Here the answer is also in bytes for the device /dev/hda1. Note that
block-devices usually (always?) work with a sector size of 512-bytes.
Mutatis mutandi.
