Sorry to reply to such an old message - cleaning out folders again.

I did actually try putting in a spare floppy and doing swapctl -a
/dev/fd0[abcd]. All of these came up with Device not configured.

I tried the same thing on my NetBSD 1.4 workstation and had the same
result. Is the floppy device not capable of supporting swap?
