Subject: [PATCH 07/16] resize2fs: Remove the real kilobytes rant from man page |
|
|
|
commit 94f20cd51522dd718bc4a459ea65d72a722d1874 |
|
|
|
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. |
