Hello,

Partition boundary problem in 2.4.16 ?!

I just tried to make a mke2fs on my /dev/hda9 and mke2fs with kernel
2.4.16 and it failed with a partial write. /var/log/messages says:

  kernel: 03:09: rw=3D0, want=3D289140, limit=3D289138
  kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device

It works fine with 2.4.13 and it works with 2.4.16 if blocksize ist
set to 4k (fails with 1k blocks). Both kernel have reiserfs- and
ext3-support enabled and i2c- and lm_sensors-patches applied. mke2fs is
version 1.25 (20-Sep-2001), using EXT2FS Library 1.25. Partition table
is (fdisk -l /dev/hda):

  Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 5005 cylinders
  Units =3D cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
