under 2.0.5R the newfs command recommended in /etc/disktab results in
~1216 sector unused out of a total of 2880.
the recommended command is 'newfs fd<drive>[.<size>]' as in newfs fd0.1440
'newfs -t 2 -u 18 fd0' results in no wasted floppy disk space.
the file system type is reported as 'unused' ;(
