Hello FreeBSD team, i found a little problem in the documentation. On https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/adding-swap-space.html, in Example 12.2. in the 4th point you list the command 'swapon -aq'. But this just doesn't work. After some research someone at https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2013-October/046056.html pointed out that an entry in the /etc/fstab with file= automatically implies the late option. So the right command in the docs should be '*swapon -aL*', which mounts swap entries which have the late option set. Tested on the latest version of FreeBSD 10.0. Sincerely, Michael Koch PS: I love FreeBSD, great work.
