bsdinstall: Change "default" (first) Partitioning method to ZFS
Plus I miss from here the relontes tag.
I'm not sure if this merits a release notes entry but ... sure.
There is not actually a functional change here. It's just a defaults change.
I'd say that a change in defaults is far more deserving of being mentioned
in the release notes than, say, adding a new feature. Nobody will trip over
new features by mistake, but there's probably someone out there who is used
to holding down the Enter key in the installer and expects to get UFS.
+1 on changing the default. This doesn't preclude UFS systems or reduce
choice (we value choice).
+0 on tweaking it or setting exceptions if and where necessary, as long
as it doesn't result in more than minimal fragmentation between
versions/archs/install types: this is also a POLA issue. I don't oin its
own consider "4gb systems" as necessary.
+1 RELNOTES, we value POLA.
More things in RELNOTES not less
