I have a SuSE SLES 9 system, that I have configured with a 256 M Virtual
Disk for Swap, as well as a secondary minidisk swap disk.  Both show up
when I do a 'cat  /proc/dasd/devices'  after booting:

0.0.0301(ECKD) at ( 94:    16) is dasde       : active at blocksize: 4096,
180000 blocks, 703 MB
0.0.0300(FBA ) at ( 94:    20) is dasdf       : active at blocksize: 512,
524288 blocks, 256 MB

but initially only the minidisk shows up as swap.  I have to manually
'swapon /dev/dasdf1' in order to start it.

I have modified my /etc/fstab to include both, but only the minidisk device
shows up.

/dev/dasde1          swap                 swap       pri=-2
0 0
/dev/dasdf1           swap                  swap      pri=42
0 0

I am using Sine Nomine's 'Swapgen' to initialize the virtual disk, and am
even using the DIAG option, which also does not seem to work, even when I
try to
manually enable it using the command 'modprobe dasd_diag_mod'.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
