newfs_hfs for FreeBSD

Status

fsck_hfs is based on the corresponding utility from Darwin 6.6 (MacOS 10.2.6.)

A few bugs existing in Darwin's version of newfs_hfs have been fixed:

Known Problems and Limitations

Only devices with the block size of 512 bytes are supported.

Creating a journaled HFS Plus volume less than the journal file size will fail with an obscure error message. It's a bug from Darwin.

Plans for Improvement

Currently none.
