Instead of one 500 Mb swap partition, you might want to put a swap partition on each disk. That way, you get double the paging bandwidth and half as long a wait for a given page. Don't worry -- your box will run fine with only 250 Mb of swap if you take /dev/hdb out of the system later. > nothing will be done with X until i have a new video card, What video cards are you looking at? -- Bob Miller K<bob> kbobsoft software consulting http://kbobsoft.com [EMAIL PROTECTED]
