My main question is the device it uses. The man page has the
device /dev/sd0b. This needs to be set up somewhere. Still, I see
that people use "swap" in its place instead.
Unless I'm misunderstanding your question /dev/sd0b (or /dev/wd0b) is
swap, and it gets setup by default during one's installation.
