Hello,

I have moved this e-mail over to FreeBSD-Questions because it does not
belong on the FreeBSD security list, please try to direct your questions
to the appropriate lists in the future :)

There's a good way to do this without having to repartition or anything of
the sort. It's fairly easy and is described in detail on the FreeBSD diary.
The direct link to this article is:

http://www.freebsddiary.org/swap.html

Note that in 4.0 the vn driver is a loadable module, and you will not need
to recompile your kernel. You can load the module by typing:

kldload vn

This should get you started. Good luck. If something doesn't work, feel
free to e-mail me privatly and I'll give you a hand.

Matt
