Using a guided partitioning install of 9.0-RC2 on a 64GB (virtual) disk

Btw (unrelated), tried the same with a 2 TB (virtual) disk, the
guided partitioning suggested 64k boot, 2TB ufs, and 4GB swap,
but then fails with No free space left on device.
Didn't investigate, looks like a bug.
Sorry, my mistake, please disregard this claim.
I chose create instead of

The installer will align all partitions to the GEOM stripesize/offset.
We could make it do min(4KB, stripesize), but in general I think this is
better done at the GEOM level.
I doubt any SSD device on the market will want to admit its
internal structure, they all claim 512
Seems to me the min(4KB,stripesize) would be a safe bet.

Defaulting alignment to 4kb would also help drastically in most
virtualization environments due to the underlying (and its essentially
invisible to the guest os) shared storage that is likely being used.

I don't agree with that, we should do it right.
