[no less than 2GB]* swap - the swap partition should be about double the size of physical memory (RAM)gpart showWith FreeBSD the partition scheme GPT is usually the most appropriate choice for amd64 computers. Older computers that are not compatible with GPT should use MBR. The other partition schemes are generally used for uncommon or older computers.gpart recover vtbd0A standard FreeBSD GPT installation uses at least three partitions (and swap for a fourth):gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -b BEGIN -s SIZE GEOM# freebsd-boot - Holds the FreeBSD boot code.# freebsd-ufs - A FreeBSD UFS file system.# freebsd-zfs - A FreeBSD ZFS file system.
