>Description:
The dumpon man page no longer specifies that the dump device
needs to be at least 64K bigger than physical memory.
While the new information is in some ways "better", people
with systems that are exceptions to the "most" need to know how big
that header is.
>How-To-Repeat:
"man dumpon". The old information can be found at:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sbin/dumpon/dumpon.8.diff?r1=1.11.2.11&r2=1.11.2.12&f=h
>Fix:
Change the text from "additional header" to "additional 64Kb header".
