There's new information on this, and new questions...
I discovered that not only are my swaps not mounted, but the other filesystems listed in /etc/fstab aren't, either. These are, apparently, mounted by the localmount RC service. Its status is *started*. But if I /restart/ it, then my fstab filesystems get mounted. Question: /etc/init.d/localhost says: description="Mounts disks and swap according to /etc/fstab." but I can't see where that script mounts swaps. Is the description obsolete? Question 2: how can one see the output from the RC "e-trace" statements (e.g. ebegin/eend)? I don't find it in /var/log/* On 2020-03-04 09:09, n952162 wrote:
Hi, I have 3 swap devices and files. At boot, it seems indeterminate which ones get "mounted" (as swap areas). Does anyone have an idea why they're not all mounted? Here are the swap lines from my fstab: #LABEL=swap none swap sw 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-TOSHIBA_DT01ACA300_xxxxxxxx-part1 none swap sw,pri=10 0 0 /swap none swap sw,pri=5 0 0 /lcl/WDC_WD20EFRX-68EUZN0_WD-yyyyyyyyyy/1/swap none swap sw,pri=1 0 0
