Description Tateoka Takamichi 2008-03-25 05:30:00 UTC

  A sample commands to create a new partition (newfs -d0 /dev/da1e) cause
error in at least 6.2R-p8 system.  The command apppers in 18.3.2.2.

Fix: 

The next example in the handbook says use "newfs /dev/da1e", so i think
remove -d0 option from the handbook is enough.
How-To-Repeat:   Run newfs with -d0 option.  It cause a error.
  In my case:

# newfs -d0 /dev/da0a
newfs: 0: bad extent block size

  Log:
  Use the default extent-size for newfs(8) instead of a -d0 one which may
  lead to errors.
