freebsd stable - Mar 2007 - disable swap discovery?

Hello,

Since raid degradation I have had corrupted swap partition and unable to 
boot the kernel.
After detecting HDD I have "Fatal trap 12: page fault ..." and
"current
process 0 (swapper)".
This happens even when I boot from CD. If HDD is disconnected it boots 
normally.
I have tried to disable swap with setting bootloader variables but no luck:
set vm.swap_enabled=0
set vm.nswapdev=0

Is there other way to disable swap from bootloader?

Thanks in advance

boot -s, then turn off your swap partitions in fstab

Then your swap partition is not your problem.

"Process 0", which is accidentally "swapper" is a special
thing - it's
unlikely your fault is swap-related.
