System: FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE r185725 amd64
Peculiarities: ZFS, GPART

There is 4GB of RAM and 4GB swap/dump partition. The partition is
typical swap partition only created via GPART.
minidumps are enabled.

I had a crash recently and here's a message from it:

Dec  6 10:23:17 odyssey kernel: Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a
key on the console to abort

I guess the large size of the dump is because of the ZFS but I wonder
why enough room for the dump could not be found.
