Neil, Do you have a suggestion on how best to handle this? bug 926160 has some data on what we're wasting in overhead on smaller (2G size), and that is non-trivial.
The source here is probably 1408M, rather than 1G. Ben and I had estimated that for the images on cloud-images.ubuntu.com that FS could grow to ~ 1T, but your data shos that is different. How reasonable do you tihnk it is that people are going to have/*need* 768G root filesystem ? Offset that by the cost of wasted metadata space on smaller roots. Thoughts? ** Tags added: cloud-images ec2-images -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/955272 Title: growpart and resize2fs fail with very large disks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-initramfs-tools/+bug/955272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
