remove swap partion after physical machine converted into vm
Hello, I simply dd'ed the HDD of our Server and converted the image to a virtual disk, I created a VM ans fired it up. Of course I get the information that the softraid can't find another disk but it's not really needed anymore. The problem I have now is with the swapmount for the 2nd (not present) HDD. I just get into singleuser mode can exit it and then the machine just boots up as expected. For convinience it would be nice to skip the part with the singleuser mode. So is there a way to remove the swap partion or remove the softraid without data loss?

Regards Markus Markus, With this minimal information, I would guess that your issue is/are non-existent partitions defined in your /etc/fstab configuration file. If that guess is correct, you will find the configuration definitions in the fstab(5) man page, and additional guidance on disk configuration in FAQ 14. If you want better information, post more information. The more detailed a problem report is, the more accurate and helpful responses will be. See http://www.openbsd.org/report.html and FAQ 2.4
