+If the file system is in the old (static table) format,
+convert it to the new (dynamic table) format.
+If the file system is in the new format,
+convert it to the old format provided the old format
+can support the filesystem configuration.
+In interactive mode,
+.I fsck
+will list the direction the conversion is to be made
+and ask whether the conversion should be done.
+If a negative answer is given,
+no further operations are done on the filesystem.
+In preen mode,
+the direction of the conversion is listed and done if
+possible without user interaction.
+Conversion in preen mode is best used when all the file systems
+are being converted at once.
+The format of a file system can be determined from the
+first line of output from
+.IR dumpfs (8).
