No, you've not been paying attention! Since a netbsd filesystem has to
be described by a netbsd disklabel, and the disklabel only has 32 bits
for the number of sectors, ufs2/ffsv2 doesn't even allow you much
bigger partitions.

It does double the size of the inodes though.....

ffsv2 is rather pointless since it doesn't allow more than one fs block
for the per cylinder group bitmaps - which is a big restriction for
even moderate sized filesystems.
