Block size

Hello,

On a logical partition I am unable to set the block size to 1024 !
I formatted the partition mke2fs /dev/VG1/part1 -b 1024 -t ext4
and when I do a
blockbsz --getbsz or mke2fs -n
I get 4096 !
I also tried 2048 with the same result.

Is it related to the logical partition ?

Thank.
