commit bf5ca5ced57d615093056e7f8013497b0fe4068f Author: Alexander Ziaee <[email protected]> AuthorDate: 2026-04-28 16:59:19 +0000 Commit: Colin Percival <[email protected]> CommitDate: 2026-05-07 22:16:32 +0000 bsdinstall: Improve auto-partition message Manually tuning ZFS for systems with <8GB ram hasn't been necessary at least since the switch to OpenZFS. We have users reporting using 1GB RAM with no manual tuning/issues. Further, the page this links to is a stale wiki page, which is causing complaints. Remove this misleading note and replace it with a similar message for UFS. While here, reword that note to be a bit clearer.
