The current CVS picobsd script
("/usr/src/release/picobsd/build/picobsd")
uses a newfs "-p" option that is no longer
supported in 5.0-current. The picobsd script
exits with the error:
"newfs: illegal option -- p"
Under 4.x the newfs man page noted "-p" is "of
historical importance only." It specifies reserved
bad block sectors at the end of each track. Is
this still necessary for 4.x systems? Was it
primarily an attempt to use all the space on the
floppy?
Fix for 5.0-current:
In the "picobsd" script file, delete the 2 occurences
of "-p 0" on the newfs command line. Here is a
diff:
