Hi,

I've upgraded my NetBSD/i386 1.0 to 1.1. However, everytime when
the system boot up, it always displays the following message :

	.
	.
changing root device to sd0a
WARNING: no swap space found
	.
	.

I've checked the root disk with command "disklabel" and it has
the "partition b" which should be allocated as swap space. NetBSD 1.1
also cannot run the older utility "swapinfo". Is the above description
normal ??

Thanks,

plwong@cs.ust.hk
