NetBSD  9.0_RC1 NetBSD 9.0_RC1 (GENERIC) #0: Thu Jan  9 17:18:43 UTC 2020  mkrepro@mkrepro.NetBSD.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64
>Description:
When you have a partitioned disk with a swap partition and then you go to Edit NetBSD partitions in utility menu, size of swap partition is zero.
>How-To-Repeat:
First create partitions on entire disk with default partition sizes:
Start an installation of NetBSD 9.0_RC1:
1. Boot computer with installation disk prepared form image
2. Select Install NetBSD
3. Keyboard type: US-English
4. Install NetBSD to hard disk
5. Shall we continue ? Yes
6. On which disk do you want to install NetBSD ? wd0 (149G)
7. This is the correct geometry
8. Use the entire disk
9. Use default partition sizes
10. Partition sizes ok
11. Shall we continue ? Yes
12. Selected bootblock: BIOS console
    Continue
13. Abandon installation
You have partitioned disk.

Next go to Utility menu:
1. Utility menu
2. Partition a disk
   Screen shows:
   a: wd0 (149G)               UNCHANGED
   b: wd0a on/(FFSv2)(unused)       145G
   c: wd0b (swap)                  3894M
3. a: wd0 (149)
4. a: Edit NetBSD partitions
   Screen shows:
        Size (MB)                Filesystem
   a: 148732                     =/
   b: 0                          =<swap>
   c: 0                          /tmp (tmpfs)
   d: 0                          /usr
   e: 0                          /var

   (Notice b: above)
5. Go on. Free space 3894MB
   Screen shows swap 0 MB size

 This seems to be already fixed in HEAD, will be pulled up before 9.0 RC2.
