Is your disk attached to ada0?
You can check this with camcontrol e.g.
camcontrol devlist
camcontrol identify <device>
Personally I find diskid's more of a hindrance than a help so I disable
them in /boot/loader.conf with:
kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable="0"
For reference the same can be done for gpt and gptid, however gptid are
more useful:
kern.geom.label.gpt.enable="0"
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable="0"
If your using 9.x I would also recommend moving to 10.1, lots of good
things in this.
Regards
Steve

Hi Steve After disabling gpt and gptid at boot the swap is back root@:~ # swapinfo Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity /dev/ada0p2 2097152 0 2097152 0% Thank you very much.
