Hello Ivan! Thanks for the hint! :-) :-)

When I have created a new filesystem type 2 (UFS2) with -J switch,
then on mount I get this error that filesystem has journaling enabled
but no provider is specified, so it looks like no journal is enabled?

Does newfs -J create journal as well?

According to man newfs:

     -J      Enable journaling on the new file system via gjournal.  See
             gjournal(8) for details.

This is why I have started reading man gjournal and saw an example
where journal is first created before newfs...

Will "gjournal label -f" erase all data on partition with existing newfs/ufs2?

Thanks!! :-)
Tomek
