Safer is the word.   Frank still finds bugs in it here and then.

It should _never_ go away.  TOSFS is the compatibility FS.

BTW, whatever happened to those floppy handling bugs in NEWFAT
and Minix 0.70.6 filesystems??  Did Frank ever fix them?  

What about hacking Minit so that it only offers options that are
recognized by this new barebones Minix.XFS (ie: eliminate V1 and
therefore always create V2 filesystems)?
