You can also do a <ctrl>+<c> on the client when it gets to the mke2fs
part of the install, then try the command yourself from the command
line.
What is the output of this command?
grep mke2fs <your_autoinstall_script>
Sorry, i should have explicitly stated that yes I have modified the
autoinstall script to do this, as well as verified on the console that
it is being called with those arguments as requested, but is still not
changing the bytes per inode.
just for grins, have you tried making it ext2 instead of ext3 and see if it
works? how about reiser? Even if you don't want to use those filesystems,
might be worth trying editing the autoinstall script to see if one of those
would allow you to alter the inode size.
thanks
