A question about panic dumps. Imagine you have a 16 MB machine. You
put 2 swap partitions on two disks. Fine. If you get a kernel dump
you have the space.

Now you put 4 more MB in your machine. A kernel dump will now be 20 MB.
If the DODUMP code smart enough not to wipe the 4 MB behind the defined
"dump on sd0" or will it be necessary to put "dump on sd0 and sd1" in
config file ?

It is not my situation (I have 20 MB and 2x32 MB swap) but I guess it may
happen.
