Installation pages flash drive too small for 23.01 ARM64 image
100%
Description
The installation media page says 4GB is sufficient for pfSense but the 23.01 ARM64 image is 4 in one and expands to 4GB when decompressed.
https://docs.netgate.com/reference/create-flash-media.html
What reads presently
@A USB flash drive.
The drive should be 4 GB in size at minimum, 8 GB or larger is ideal. Current installation images from Netgate can be over 2 GB in size, but this is likely to increase over time.@
Should change to:
@A USB flash drive.
The drive should be 8 GB in size at minimum, 16 GB or larger is ideal. Current installation images from Netgate can be over 4 GB in size, but this is likely to increase over time.@

I'll update that doc but do note the documents for the 1100 and 2100 both actually say 8GB already:

2. Write the image to a USB memstick (8GB or larger).
