missing space on ext2fs scsi drive

[Timothy Wall]

I'm running a 604e (PowerCenterPro 180) with 128 Mb RAM, 128Mb swap.
The root partition is on either a 4Gb or 8Gb disk (I think it's on the 8Gb).
I've run mke2fs sans arguments w/o problems, but on smaller disks (I've got an 8,
a 4, a 2, and a 0.7Gb).
