Valid block size vales are 1024, 2048 and 4096 bytes per block. If omitted, mke2fs block-size is heuristically determined by the file system size and the expected usage of the filesystem (see the -T option). If block-size is negative, then mke2fs will use heuristics to determine the appropriate block size, with the constraint that the block size will be at least block-size bytes. This is useful for certain hardware devices which require that the blocksize be a mul‐ tiple of 2k. We do not pass any arguments to mke2fs about the blocksize, so the defaults are choosen which result in your case in a blocksize of 1024. YaST uses the "auto" parameter by default to let mke2fs do the right thing. So, this does look correct at first sight. The question is whether the choosen value of a blocksize of 1024 is really correct. Matthias, can you double check whether 1024 is really the right size - and whether the algorithm in e2fsprogs has changed between 10.1 and 10.2.
