--- Comment #7 from Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> ---
Note the swap partition was added to work around a GPT issue and shouldn't =
be
necessary on MBR:

    loader's GPT support on BIOS does not seem to like the root filesystem
    being the last filesystem on the disk for some reason when made by this
    script. Add a vestigial swap partition to allow this to boot with QEMU
    BIOS.
