As for the double square brackets

Should the below work for example?

if [ $optfstmod -eq 1 ] && [ $optfrestore -eq 1 ] ; then

[ $optfstmod -eq 1 ] is a test statement that will work in any bourne type shell and is POSIX compliant. [[ $optfstmod -eq 1 ]] is a conditional expression that is specific to ksh and bash and offers more possibilities and is a bit faster, but it is not POSIX compliant and as as such will likely not work in other Bourne type shells.

What do you think?
