Just to be sure, can you try an 1.6.1 ISO:

http://chlamydia.fs.ei.tum.de/pub/DragonFly/snapshots/i386/LATEST-Release-1.6.iso.bz2

There were a couple of bugs fixed, although I remember nothing having to 
do with the swapper.

If that doesn't help, please type "trace" at the "db>" prompt to get us 
a backtrace (btw, do you have "makeoptions DEBUG=-g" in your kernel 
config?).
