The latest cvs2svn allows you to create a repository as type fsfs.

I converted my repository a long time ago now, but I recall that cvs2svn
produced a dumpfile of my entire CVS repository. I then created my
repository myself and used svnadmin load repos < dumpfile to populate it.

Worst case, just run cvs2svn and then do this:

svnadmin dump temprepos > dumpfile
svnadmin create repos --fs-type=fsfs
svnadmin load repos < dumpfile
