Is this normal

Swap crossed partition
I have two install on separate partitions. ad4s1b cross the boundary. Is this normal?

Yes, it's normal. The second install noticed an existing swap partition and decided to use that too. If you don't want it just edit /etc/fstab.

Thanks SirDice,

I just start reading seriously about fstab for minutes ago. I know you stay busy so I will not hold you up. aragon and jb_fvw2m mention last night about using dev and mountpoints which is related. Can I do this ad4s2a inside ad4s1 – Save fstab than reboot to see it inside from ad4s1. Right now I'm to afraid to try it.

Change the ad4s2a '/' mountpoint to an empty directory you chose for the new mountpoint.
Then try it without a reboot:

umount /dev/ad4s2a # in case it's mounted somewhere else
mount -a # rescan all mounts in fstab


If the filesystem is marked dirty, caused by a hard reset or so, you should do a fsck /dev/ad4s2a before it can be mounted.
