I've tried this morning with a bigger sda5, but without luck.

fdisk -l /dev/sda:
/dev/sda1            1        1      112     899608+    83  Linux Native
/dev/sda2          112      112      124      96390      5  DOS Extended
/dev/sda5          113      113      124      96358+    82  Linux Swap

/var/log/syslog:
Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: Free swap  = 90140kB

There was another terminal open with a tail -f on /var/log/syslog, which
could be an explaination of the failure, given that it was indeed using
some resources.

I'll further investigate this issue tonight.

Other systems affected besides the nslu2?

ciao,
