Subject: [PATCH 01/10] resize2fs: Remove the real kilobytes rant from man page
|
|
|
|
Remove the rant about the "real" kilobytes from the man page and just
|
|
make it more clear that the suffixed units are representing power-of-two
|
|
units as we do in mke2fs man page. Also add terabytes to the list.
