No, when I get to shell after this failure during the normal boot process
mount shows:
/dev/ad12s1c    /   (ufs,local,read-only)
swapinfo shows that swap volume is /dev/ad12s1b

I thought that mount command is supposed to pick up the locations correctly,
so that when I say 'mount -uw /' device should be picked up from the already
mounted list.

Also I found that swapon and mount are related in my case. Once swapon is done
I can't remount root as r/w. And vice versa, when mount -uw is done swapon
returns EPERM.

This happens when I boot as single user. When I do swapon consecutive
'mount -uw ' fails. When I do 'mount -uw' consecutive swapon fails.
So I don't have swap at all since this command failed during boot.

I guess 'nmount' and 'swapon' system calls are similar and somehow interfere
with each other.

So I still can't boot normally, only through single user mode and I don't
have swap at all after this.
