Maybe better, for
<https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-doc/blob/main/documentation/content/en/=
books/handbook/bsdinstall/_index.adoc#6-allocating-disk-space>:=20

> * Auto (UFS) uses UFS for the file system within the system partition.

=E2=80=93 and bring forward the 'more info' blurb that's currently under

should include something like this:=20

From
<https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/man/8/zfs-load-key.8.html#Encryptio=

=E2=80=93 at, not after. The installer uses adduser(8), which does not yet =
