https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=204485 Bug ID: 204485 Summary: swapfile not mounted on boot Product: Base System Version: 10.2-STABLE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: conf Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: zsolt.ero@gmail.com By following the relevant section of the handbook (https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/adding-swap-space.html) I created a swap file and set up fstab: dd if=/dev/zero of=/usr/swap0 bs=1m count=2048 chmod 0600 /usr/swap0 echo "md99 none swap sw,file=/usr/swap0 0 0" >> /etc/fstab Now, running "swapon -aL" does indeed mount the swap file. The problem is that after reboot, the swap file is not mounted, and running "swapon -aL" returns the following error: "md99 on /usr/swap0: Device already in use" I found a thread in the forum, which confirms that this is present in 10.0 and 10.1: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/freebsd-10-wont-add-swap-file.47167/ Upon asking on IRC, it was confirmed that it is a bug and it's recommended that a bug ticket should be created for this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
