Install crash with foreign block size ext4 fs present

[Marko Kohtala]

I attached a disk from non-x86 network drive to x86 host. It has two RAID partitions on it and an ext4 data partition. I installed lvm2 in hope to get access to the RAID. The data partition has block size of 64KB and x86 was unable to mount it. I suspect the RAID has same blocksize and is causing this problem, but have no evidence.

Here info on the data partition:
