how to find default OS block size?
Hi
Can someone please guide me on how to get the default block size for
all unix flavors.
As per my investigation its 512 for all unix flavours other than HP for which it is 1024.However I am not sure on this.
I even tried the df ommand but utt gives the output w.r.t file system created but I need the OS block size.
It would be great if some one could guide me on this.
thanks

UPDATE-RCCONF-GUIDE(8) Debian GNU/Linux UPDATE-RCCONF-GUIDE(8)
NAME
update-rcconf-guide - Create default guide file for rcconf
SYNOPSIS
update-rcconf-guide
DESCRIPTION
Update-rcconf-guide creates the default guide file which rcconf uses.
Update-rcconf-guide searches the package names corresponding to each service file in /etc/init.d directory from dpkg info
files(/var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list) and get the description of these packages using apt-cache. Update-rcconf-guide uses Short-Description in
priority to the description if service files has Short-Description field. Update-rcconf-guide writes those results to
/var/lib/rcconf/guide.default file.
You can write your own guide in user guide file(/var/lib/rcconf/guide) by hand. Rcconf refers Guides in /var/lib/rcconf/guide before those
in /var/lib/rcconf/guide.default.
If you install some packages after executed update-rcconf-guide, you need to re-create this file using update-rcconf-guide so as to refresh
guide.default that includes new guides for installed new services.
Notice: update-rcconf-guide was not executed when you installed rcconf
package.
FILE
/var/lib/rcconf/guide.default
Guide File update-rcconf-guide generates.
/var/lib/rcconf/guide
Guide File user(Administrator) can define.
