+ * The ordering of fstypes[] is not arbitrary.

+ * fstyp checks the existence of a file system header to determine the
+ * type of file system on a given device. For different file systems,
+ * these headers reside at different offsets within the device.
+ *
+ * For example, the header for an MS-DOS file system begins at offset 0,
+ * whereas a header for UFS *normally* begins at offset 64k. If a device
+ * was constructed as MS-DOS and then repurposed as UFS (via newfs), it
+ * is possible the MS-DOS header will still be intact. To prevent
+ * misidentifying the file system, it is desirable to check the header
+ * with the largest offset first (i.e., UFS before MS-DOS).
