>Description:
On code inspection, I notice that src/distrib/utils/sysinst
uses newfs to create filesystems on FS_APPLEUFS partitions.
Unfortunately, it does not include the '-v' option to newfs
which would cause it to create a true APPLE_UFS filesystem.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
add a '-v volumename' argument to newfs when creating filesystems
on FS_APPLEUFS partitions.
