On an 8.0 system:
xotica# newfs dk0
When I partitioned my new big disk, I just used "newfs NAME=label". That
works fine. I've been using NAME=label as much as possible, to see which
commands don't understand it. So far it was, I think, only umount which
didn't. And "fsck_ffs", but that can be replaced with "fsck -t ffs".
