            Bug ID: 252585
           Summary: dump partition in /etc/fstab being used as swap
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.2-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: g.s at arcor.de

I added a partition for crash dumps, because savecore doesn't find the core
after dumping to the mirror, so my fstab looks like this:

/dev/mirror/swap        none            swap    sw      0       0
/dev/ada0p4             none            dump    sw      0       0

After reboot, the dump device is being used as swap. I'm not sure if this is a
bug, but I'm expecting only the mirror being used for swap.
