Thank you very much, I get 8 responses and they all give me the right solution to find what I want! Thank you all for your great help!! JBarton Received Reponse from: HTH fstyp -v /dev/rdsk/cXtYdAsB | grep bsize <-- data block size. -or- df -g | grep "block size" Either of those will tell you the file system block size. prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/cXtYdAsB <-- Will tell you the number of bytes per sector Changa Anderson mkfs -m /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 bsize=data block size fragsize=disk block size Christophe Dupre Disk block size is always 512 bytes. For the data block size, you can 'fstyp -v <raw device>' and look at the 'bsize' line. Daniel Tate fstyp -v /dev/dsk/yada/blah/blah/blah.. hmnguyen You can use two of the basic solutions as follow; 1) Use df -g - This reports the entire file structure described in statvfs 2) Use fstyp -v <character device file> - For HFS, you can use tunefs -v in the same manner Dietsch, Nathan (London) fstyp should do the job Lumpkin, Buddy Run fstyp -v /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 | egrep '(bsize|fsize)' Peter Ondruska data block size: df -g (see block size, value in bytes) disk block size is 512b for all disks I have seen... not sure how to verify...
