A little bit offtopic. Is there any difference between such configuration:
1) In FDISK Partition editor create two slices with desc "freebsd"
In disk label editor for the first slice create: / /home /usr /var etc... and for the second create swap.
2) In FDISK Partition editor create one slice with desc "freebsd"
In disk label editor do everything as usual /, /home, /usr, /var, swap, etc...

Is there really any necessity to go by first way? I've heard that some people are going this way and says it's more secure to keep swap in different slice.
