Yes, I think that's the explanation.  Unless the previous format of the
remaining cylinders just coincidentally happened to be compatible, it's n
ot
likely that any pages got written out successfully to those volumes.  The

one exception might be that one volume that Dave Jones noticed had cylind
er
0 allocated as page - if that was formatted the same way, the system
might've successfully paged out up to 180 pages to it (one cylinder's
worth).  I'm actually somewhat surprised you didn't run into one of the
other problems I mentioned (FRF002, PGT004, SXP004) with that much
unformatted paging space.
