thank you for this link
As Chris Murphy noted, ext3 filesystems larger than 8TB were not
supported in the initial release of CentOS 5.0, and may have required the -F flag after
such support was added.
You didn't, as far as I can see, answer back whether you had
tried with that flag:
You are correct, sir
mkfs.ext3 -F -b 4096 -n /dev/sdb1
Note that I don't have a CentOS 5 system around for testing, and
I don't know what mixing -F and -n does.
Yeah I was a little nervous about that, and as such, I didn’t try it :) because the flags
are also counter to one another.
