I've also come across with this recently.
Don't remember all the details, something like this:
. install CURRENT to bhyve using 1G memory, get out of swap error;
. set 2G memory, got the same error, didn't try more memory (seemed
not sane to).
Took a look at the boot environment and found out that something was
wrong (with the filesystem). Unfortunately, I do not recall now what
was it. :-( Something like too small /tmp, no /tmp at all, something
else...
But definitely the error message was misleading and not the case of
the failure.
