Question about mounting XFS partition greater than 2 TB

Since Trisquel by default formats your /home partition under XFS, does it use the inode64 option when you mount it in Nautilus? I ask because I heard that partitions greater than 2TB can sometimes have issues and using inode64 fixes it, but some issues can happen with non 32-bit programs.
Any idea? If so, where are the settings when you mount a partition in Trisquel and I can take a peek at the mount options. Thanks.
No it doesn't, at least in Tris 6. You can see the mount options used in /etc/fstab and find out what they mean and what options are available on the manual page for mount.
You can see what the mount options are in the man page of “mount”: “man 8 mount” or just “man mount”.
Let's say I have a 2nd hard drive with a 3 TB partition and I click it in the Trisquel menu or in Unity in the launcher. I'm talking about those mount parameters and not mounting manually via the terminal or adding to my fstab.
You can see the options used afterwards with
mount
Not sure where to edit them though.
Obviously I can read documentation for mount or manually mount it with options in the command line or fstab.
I'm just curious what settings Nautilus uses by default and if it takes larger hard drives into consideration.

Like lembas told you, just type 'mount' in a terminal after Nautilus mounted the drive.
However, to know which mount options it *will* use, it's necessary to read the Nautilus documentation or source code, since it may in principle vary the options between mounts (For instance, if a configuration file is changed, which may happen because of a software update).
