Thanks, good info. file is nice for quick reference.
I saw the id field in the dumpfs output and I wanted
to verify it meant a unique id for the fs.

mkfs.c (netbsd-4)
        sblock.fs_id[0] = (long)tv.tv_sec;      /* XXXfvdl huh? */                      
        sblock.fs_id[1] = arc4random() & INT32_MAX;                                     

rc4random is clear enough, but what is tv.tv_sec?
