you could add a temporary swap file.  I'm not real familiar with
BSDI, but as an example on a Solaris machine:
        mkfile 1000m temp_swap_file
add a line to vfstab:
        /path/to/temp_swap_file swap swap rw 0 0
and then:
        swapon -a

In this manner you can create swap files instead of swap partitions,
so you don't have to redo your disk layout.

Just a thought...
