* Reviewed by: bde,jkhgrog1998-09-111-2/+12
| | | | | | | | Add -v flag to newfs: -v Specify that the partition does not contain any slices, and that newfs should treat the whole partition as the file system. This option is useful for synthetic disks such as ccd and vinum.

* Change the defaults for newfs to disregard the geometry in the disklabel.phk1995-02-051-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We pretend we have one head with two megabyte worth of sectors per cylinder. The code try to access another head in what it belives to the same physical cylinder, because it belives that it would be faster than waiting for the next free sector under this head to come around. Most modern drives doesn't have a "classical" geometry, and thus we end up fooling ourselves doing the above optimization. With this change we will fill a cylinder sequentially if we can, and thus get much more mileage from the track-buffer/cache built into the drives. As a result a lot of seeks to the next or previous track should be avoided by this. (My disk is a lot less noisy actually...) You can still get the old behaviour, by specifying zero for the numbers. This will also solve the problem with newfs barfing at really big drives. Obtained from: adult advice from Kirk.
