Hi,

This manpage is badly in need of a revamp for the 5.x branch. A 128MB /
doesn't give one much breathing room and a 128MB /var won't fit anything
but a moderately used desktop these days. There is also no mention of the
additional kmem_map tuning that is now required on moderately busy systems
with 2GB+ of RAM (These types of systems are fairly common with the price
of RAM these days).

There is a reference to the obsoleted disklabel(8) utility on the first
line under SYSTEM SETUP. Could this be changed to bsdlabel(8)?

Under the /tmp section, there's a reference to "softlink"ing /var/tmp to
/tmp. Just to avoid any confusion, could this be rephrased as
symlinking?

Regards,
