I see. If needed we can add more safety checks when setting the newfs flag
(like we do in other places: silently run fsck_$fs -p) - but the way it was
now caused tricky fallout when the kernel was able to mount the new EFI
boot partition (due to a previous FAT partition starting at the same spot),
but copying the EFI bootloaders failed.
