>Description:
The "-O" option doesn't list FFSv2, yet folks in IRC on freenode.net indicate 
that "-O 2" is FFSv2 even though the man pages for "newfs" indicate type 2 is 
for UFS2.

>How-To-Repeat:
Type "man newfs" at the shell prompt, then scroll down to the "-O" option.
>Fix:
If "-O 2" is indeed FFSv2, then the documentation should be updated to reflect 
this (FFS should also be changed to FFSv1 to be more consistent when sysinst 
then too).
