heh, wasn't able to figure out the format in fstab so i have a "hack" in rc.local:

echo 'mounting mfs /tmp.'
mount_mfs -s 160000 -o nosuid,nodev /dev/wd0s3b /tmp    

/dev/wd0s3b is my swap partition.

if anyone would document this better..... i'd appreciate knowing a "real" way to do this.

thanks.
Alfred
