Swap file errors on 4 GB drive.
Hi folks, I tried to install FreeBSD 4.9 on a computer with a 4 GB drive, but it killed the kernel when it got a swap file error. I put in an 8 GB drive an everything went smoothly. Any ideas on how to avoid error when installing to smaller drives? By the way, I've been refining some notes of mine and consolidated them into a procedure to install FreeBSD.
