...I suppose I should have mentioned... the file system names are
case-insensitive, and are treated as lower-case by config(8). These
lower-case names are used to build the list of legal file system types
which may be specified on the "config netbsd ..." line(s). So:
file-system ffs
- and -
file-system FFS
are treated exactly the same by config(8).
Note, config(8) still causes -DFFS (in this example) to be used when
building the kernel.
Ciao.
