At the moment the system doesn't support swap on Vinum. This is as a result of some of the changes to GEOM, and it'll be fixed as soon as I can. Apart from that, most problems with Vinum seem to be pilot error. I'm aware of the fact that the man pages are rather turgid. You might like to look at the documentation at http://www.vinumvm.org/ as well. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
