>Description:
	
Neither newfs nor newlfs will accept disk partitions that end in anything
other than [a-h].  This can be a bit of a problem when first installing
NetBSD.

>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:
	
There is a hard-coded check against 'h' in newfs.c (in both the newfs and
newlfs dirs) that should probably be replaced with ('a' + MAXPARITIONS - 1).
