Right.  I am exporting /u1/dreamcast from my nfs server.  So the dreamcast's
swap file is /u1/dreamcast/.swap and is available as soon as / is mounted
on my dreamcast.  This means it is there when /etc/rc starts.  If I boot
single user (and want swap for something), I can just do "swapctl -A" after
mounting / read-write.

It seems easier, and I am not aware of any issues with doing it this way.
