Don't use UFS2 by default during the install process on PC98, as the

Browse Source 
PC98 boot blocks don't support UFS2.  We keep newfs(8) defaulting to
UFS2.

Warn users that FreeBSD can only boot from a root file system smaller
than 1.5TB; hopefully this will get fixed by the patches currently
floating around on -CURRENT.

The UNIX File System (UFS) on FreeBSD supports two different on-disk
layouts: UFS1 and UFS2. UFS1 was the default file system in use
through FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE; as of FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE, the default
is now UFS2. UFS2 provides sparse inode allocation (faster
fsck), 64-bit storage pointers (larger maximum size), and native
extended attributes (required for ACLs, MAC, and other advanced
security and file system services). The selection of UFS1 or
UFS2 must be made when the file system is created--later conversion
is not currently possible. UFS2 is the recommended file system, but
if disks are to be used on older FreeBSD systems, UFS1 improves
portability. When dual-booting between FreeBSD 4.x or earlier and
FreeBSD 5.x, UFS1 file systems will be accessible from both.
To toggle a file system to UFS1, press '1'. To restore it to UFS2,
press '2'.
