There is no &man.fsck_ffs.8; entity.  Underscores can't be a part of 
entities; use &man.fsck.ffs.8; instead.  See doc/share/sgml/man-refs.ent 
for a full list.  If there's an entity missing that you need, drop a 
note to doc@ and (hopefully) one of us can add it for you.

There was some mention earlier that this document could be added to the
5.0-RELEASE errata.  I don't think this the right place, because the
errata is fairly transient in nature and the information in this FAQ is
much more long-lived.  People will be interested in this information for
some time to come.  I was in favor of it going into the Handbook as
prose (i.e. not a Q&A format), however:  1) I haven't looked for an
appropriate place and 2) I probably won't be the one doing the work. :-)

I only gave your FAQ a 30-second glance, but it did a good job of
distilling information from a whole bunch of places...nice going.

Bruce.
