That could be part of my confusion, then. Speaking strictly from a
personal-experience historical perspective, FFS was the Berkeley "Fast
File System", added no later than 4.2 (can't recall whether it was in
4.1c) and UFS was Sun's name for FFS when they imported it to SunOS
(this was long before Solaris). I've never totally understood the
distinction between the two as it exists in NetBSD.
