That means that besides a floppy, I have no writable media, and therefore, no swap. I have looked into V9FS, and MFS, but the source for V9FS is lkm based, and will not load on stable (at least not for me in the little time I spent on it.. yes I loaded the lkm module first), and MFS seems to require a writable block device. Am I missing something obvious? Any ideas? Thanks Chad To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
