Sorry about that last mail it was sent prematurely.


I know this probably isn't the correct way to do this but it worked for me
also without patching or having to rebuild the whole release.


mdconfig -a -t swap -s 4m
mdconfig -a -t swap -s 4m
mdconfig -a -t swap -s 4m
mdconfig -a -t swap -s 4m
mdconfig -a -t swap -s 4m

to make the md0-4 in /dev

then chroot to your build dir

chroot /home2/build/work/5-current-chrootdir /mk cdrom.1
chroot /home2/build/work/5-current-chrootdir /mk iso.1
