Hello,

I have a one of swap partitions of 918Mb, 2G of RAM and would like to 
create 918Mb memory disc. I do
  /sbin/mount_mfs -m 1 -o nosuid,nodev /dev/rda1s1b /u
I get:
  Warning: Block size and bytes per inode restrict cylinders per group to 89.
and 'df /u' gives:
  Filesystem  1M-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
  mfs:59828         503        0      498     0%    /u
I tried various combinations of '-i', '-b' switches to mount_mfs, but was
unable to increase filesystem size over 511Mb. How to overcome these
limitations?

Thanks a lot,
Alex
