On my second drive, I don't have "/" on 'a', but instead of swap on it.
I suspect that folks with multiple swap partitions (which I suspect is
greater than 0.1% of the folks) don't follow the same guidelines.

The above statements are generally relevant to the first disk used by
FreeBSD, but after that it's a crap shoot.
