10.04.4 LTS:
Formatting sdc3 (WDC WD20EARX-00P) to a full-disk ext4 partition via
gparted:
mkfs.ext4 -j -O extent -L '' /dev/sdc1
dev/sdc1 alignment is offset by 512 bytes.
This may result in very poor performance, (re)-partitioning suggested.

This filesystem will be automatically checked every 33 mounts or
180 days, whichever comes first. Use tune2fs -c or -i to override.
Oookay, soo ... it is not obvious to me how to fix this. I'll try
resizing the partition with the first 1M empty, as suggested in that IBM
article. I trying unselecting alignment to sector but I got errors all
over the place.
