I'm in the process of installing FreeBSD Release 2.0.  When the install program
tries to do a newfs on /dev/rwd0a I get the error Fatal Exec (/stand/newfs) 
failed, code 9 led by vm-pageout - out of swap.  I'm doing the install on 
an old 386SX20, 3Megs RAM I've cobbled together as a test machine.  It was
quite happy to run 1.1.5.  Can anybody identify what the error code is
telling me please
