ext2 - sizes of 1, 2 and 4k can be specified when creating the fs,
else it "determines" the best size, which is (in my experience)
almost always 4k. I'm not sure about some of the new journaling
filesystems, I gather that *BSD uses 512 bytes? I think the minix
filesystem and older versions of ext{1,2} did/can do 512.
