Just another data point: I have a system running the May 22, 1997 3.0-Snapshot, and it has this behavior. I have a 512 Mbyte swap partition that I use for a memory file system, with this in my fstab: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/wd0s1b /tmp mfs rw 0 0 It shows in df(1) like this: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on mfs:22 31039 8 28548 0% /tmp swapinfo(8) says: Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type /dev/wd0s1b 512000 54728 457208 11% Interleaved I never tried mounting it from a command. > ...

Is this a bug, or have I missed something?
