I'm using NetBSD-1.2 on a Pentium Pro 200 with an Adaptec SCSI
controller and two large-ish drives.  I'd like to increase my swap
space and (more importantly) distribute the paging activity between
the two spindles.

abraham# egrep swap /etc/fstab
/dev/sd0b       none                    swap    sw
/dev/sd1b       none                    swap    sw
abraham# pstat -s
Device      1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Type
/dev/sd0b      134976    40068    94908    30%    Interleaved
abraham# swapon -a 
swapon: /dev/sd1b: Device not configured
abraham# egrep swap /sys/arch/i3*/conf/A*
#config         netbsd  swap generic
config          netbsd  root on sd0a swap on sd0b and sd1b
abraham# ls -l /dev/sd1*
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,   8 Sep 16  1996 /dev/sd1a
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,   9 Dec 20 21:44 /dev/sd1b
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,  10 Sep 16  1996 /dev/sd1c
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,  11 Sep 16  1996 /dev/sd1d
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,  12 Sep 16  1996 /dev/sd1e
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,  13 Sep 16  1996 /dev/sd1f
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,  14 Sep 16  1996 /dev/sd1g
brw-r-----  1 root  operator    4,  15 Sep 16  1996 /dev/sd1h
abraham# 

When I change it to "swap on sd0b swap on sd1b", config tells me
"ABRAHAM:87: duplicate swap specification".

When I change it to "swap on sd0b and on sd1b" or "swap on sd0b sd1b",
config tells me "ABRAHAM:87: syntax error".

What did I do wrong?  How do I begin using that second swap partition?
