On CURRENT: man vnconfig man vn I mount a swap backed fs (which I what I suspect you want) with: vnconfig -e -s labels -S ${vn_tmp_size} ${vn_tmp_device} && \ disklabel -r -w ${vn_tmp_device} auto && \ newfs /dev/${vn_tmp_device}c > /dev/null && \ mount -o nosuid -o nodev /dev/${vn_tmp_device}c /tmp && \ chmod 1777 /tmp N.B. I don't reserve the blocks on swap, which again is what I think you want. Good luck.
