12 <h2>Blocks and Block Groups</h2>
14 <p>Every ext2 filesystem consists of blocks, which are divided into block
15 groups. Blocks can be 1k, 2k, or 4k in length.<super><a href="#1">[1]</a></super>
16 All ext2 disk layout is done in terms of these logical blocks, never in
17 terms of 512-byte logical blocks.</p>
19 <p>Each block group contains as many blocks as one block can hold a
20 bitmap for, so at a 1k block size a block group contains 8192 blocks (1024
21 bytes * 8 bits), and at 4k block size a block group contains 32768 blocks.
33 <li>Data blocks</li>
39 data blocks to hold actual file and directory data, see the superblock
42 <p>Each structure in this list is stored in its' own block (or blocks in the
43 case of the group and inode tables), and doesn't share blocks with any other

99 8k blocks but most other systems couldn't mount them, thus you don't see this
