best filesystem for large files
Ok, I have a 250 GB drive. I want to back up two 120 GB drives onto it using the dd command (backing up my TiVo). If I format the large drive with ext2, will it take up more than the extra 10GB (even if I set the block size to 4096)? If so, is there some other way to get this to fit onto the drive? I guess I could dd into the raw drive itself, and give it starting positions and sizes, but it seems like it would be too easy to mess up. Thanks.
