How do I increase my swap space? The following will increase your swap to 2 GB. Replace count= with the number of kilobytes you want for your swap file.
sudo su swapoff -a cd /host/ubuntu/disks/ mv swap.disk swap.disk.bak dd if=/dev/zero of=swap.disk bs=1024 count=2097152 mkswap swap.disk swapon -a free -m The final free statement will verify that your new swap file has the correct space. If everything worked, issue the following command and you are done. If it didn't work, then remove swap.disk and move swap.disk.bak back to swap.disk and try again. rm swap.disk.bak Reference: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide Regards Akash Deep Shakya "OpenAK" FOSS Nepal Community akashakya at gmail dot com ~ Failure to prepare is preparing to fail ~ On Wed, Jun 23, 2010 at 2:11 PM, samrakchan ghimire <[email protected]>wrote: > HI, > Good afternoon! > Is there any solution to increase swap memory after ubuntu is installed. > > Initially I have allocated 1GB of space but now I need to increase its > size to 3GB.
