>Originator:     Joe Abley
>Release:        FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE i386
>Organization:
CLEAR Communications Ltd
>Environment:

3.1-STABLE (cvsupped 15 March 1999)

>Description:

wfd(4) refers to wfd0 where it should say wfd1 in the preamble, and also
the example instructs the user to newfs /dev/rfd0a, when it should be
/dev/rwfd0a. This second part could cause someone to write a filesystem
on the wrong disk, which is probably bad.

>How-To-Repeat:

man wfd

>Fix:
	
jabley@buddha[17]% diff -C 2 wfd.4 wfd.4.new
