I just happened to look at the logs and dmesg today, and found out that while playing with disklabel, I had changed /dev/wd0s4a (a swap partition), to /dev/wd0s4b without actually updating my /etc/fstab to indicate the change. A message of: /dev/wd0s4a: Device is not configured in the beginning of my dmesg output showed where the problem was. There remains to see why device was not configured but the swapper gave up on me. Perhaps I ought to start reading some sources after all. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."
