You should probably just take the name of your swap partition. Mine is 
/dev/ad0s1b.

About the loader variable: I don't know, maybe someone else can answer 
this.


	It is hard to get a dump because this is before the system
	can even boot into single-user.  He transcribed it by hand
	to me yesterday.
	The problem is hitting in _init_cdevmsg(), but since the
	function is inlined you wouldn't see it in the stack trace
	(obviously) which is why I told him to un-inline it.
	I think the problem is coming from far below the stack.
