Jean-Pierre André f862fcee00 Extended the allowed cluster size to 2MB
From Windows 10 Creators edition, the cluster size limit has been
extended to 2MB. This has implied redefining the boot sector field
"sectors_per_cluster" so that values greater than 128 can be recorded.

Jean-Pierre André 5ebe36f10a Mentioned the starting sector when it overflows in mkntfs
In an NTFS boot sector, the first sector of the partition is limited to
32 bits and it may overflow on large disks. This field is only used for
booting on the partition and it is ignored by ntfs-3g, but the warning
in mkntfs mislead users, so improve it.

Jean-Pierre André 3461acd0c2 Changed "blocks" to "sectors" in the mkntfs manual
The last (optional) argument in mkntfs was described as a block count,
which may be confusing because in ext[123] a block means a cluster.

Erik Larsson 8deb6a323c ntfsprogs manpages: Updated the link to where the package can be downloaded. It now points at "http://www.tuxera.com/community/". 2010-12-16 17:35:59 +01:00
Erik Larsson 64d5d4da1d ntfsprogs manpages: Updated references to the 'ntfsprogs package' to reference the ntfs-3g package instead. 2010-12-16 17:35:48 +01:00
Erik Larsson 2188eab0a0 ntfsprogs manpages: Replaced all references to the linux-ntfs-dev mailing list with the ntfs-3g-devel mailing list. 2010-12-16 17:35:40 +01:00
Erik Larsson 2d8befcc07 ntfsprogs manpages: Changed 'ntfsprogs' reference in headers into 'ntfs-3g'.
The version number following 'ntfsprogs' is really the ntfs-3g version number, so the substitution seems appropriate.

aia21 19257df7f0 Update version to 2.0.0, update NEWS, update mkntfs man page and mkntfs itself.
- mkntfs: As announced, remove the deprecated support for creation of
  NTFS 1.2/3.0 volumes.  We now create NTFS 3.1 volumes only.  (Anton)
- mkntfs: Remove lots of unused/unneeded debugging code.  (Anton)
2006-12-13 10:46:49 +00:00
aia21 1a4fb3431c - mkntfs: Generate a random DCE compliant UUID for the created volume
and include --with-uuid[=PFX] and --without-uuid options.  (Anton)
- configure.ac: Set language to C.  (Anton)
- mkntfs: Always set default cluster size to 4096 bytes regardless of
  volume size.  This is what Windows Vista does and it makes perfect
  sense from a performance point of view.  (Anton)

szaka f599394450 Shorten 'ntfsprogs version @VERSION@' to only 'ntfsprogs @VERSION@' in the
headers so it won't overwrite/overlap so easily with the update time in the
center if the @VERSION@ is too long (e.g. <VERSION>-WIP-<DATE>-<TIME>)

antona af9fd39611 Wheee! Lots of last minute fixes and enhancements.
- Compiler warning fixes for gnome-vfs and fuse modules. (Anton)
- Change volume mounting (actually device opening) to happen with
  O_EXCL bit set so at least on Linux no one can change the device
  block size under our feet.  (Anton)
- Change volume mounting and mkntfs to set the device block size to the
  sector size using BLKBSZSET ioctl (Linux only).  This should be
  optimal for performance and should fixes the bug of not being able to
  create the backup boot sector if the number of sectors on the device
  is odd, the sector size is 512 bytes, and the kernel is 2.4.  (Anton)
- Enforce cluster size, mft record size, and index record size to be at
  least equal to the sector size and verify they are still valid and in
  particular display a warning message if the volume will not be
  mountable by the kernel driver (it requires mft record size and index
  record size to be below or equal to the system page size which we
  determine using sysconf()).  (Anton)
