    sbin/newfs           mkfs.c newfs.8 newfs.c newfs.h 
  Log:
  Rename the undocumented -E option to -X.
  
  Implement -E option which will erase the filesystem sectors before
  making the new filesystem.  Reserved space in front of the superblock
  (bootcode) is not erased.
  
  NB: Erasing can take as long time as writing every sector sequentially.
  
  This is relevant for all flash based disks which use wearlevelling.
