What??? scan_ffs(8) shows a possible partition based on data
from a
superblock that it finds. In that case, I'm sure that you
had an old
partition or any other partition created in a disk image or
something
like this.

If you think I'm wrong, try it.

And obviously what you are talking is wrong, I adapted
scan_ffs(8)
from OpenBSD, but also I added support for LFS and FFSv2
with _different_
blocksizes in 2005!

Oh, then I must have missed the commit messages.
Nontheless, OpenBSD's scan_ffs got some improvements in the
last two years,
which are worth to incorporate into NetBSD. Please take a
look at it again.
