[lvshuo]

when I user dedup target,

echo "0 8 dedup data_dev=/dev/sdb metadata_dev=/dev/sdd mdbackend=cowbtree reconstruct=no" | dmsetup create mydedup

 [root at localhost md]# mkfs.ext3  /dev/mapper/mydedup
 mke2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
 /dev/mapper/mydedup: Not enough space to build proposed filesystem while setting up superblock
 [root at localhost md]#

 why the create filesystem failed?  dedup have any problem?
