First, make sure you have swap space configured. If minidump is not
enabled (check sysctl debug.minidump) you will need to make sure you
have more swap space than physical memory.
Then make sure that dump device is set up correctly. See dumpdev in rc.conf(5)

If that didn't work, you may be running into the issue in PR kern/155421:

Alas, I don't know what to do about that.
