[LIH] Modifying swap partition

[Gaurav Priyolkar]

Hi,

Just checking:
I need to delete and recreate my swap partition.
Is this the correct procedure:
    1.    swapoff
    2.    delete old swap partition
    3.    create new swap partition
    4.    update fstab
    5.    mkswap
    6.    swapon
Or does anything else have to be done? Is swapon sufficient or do I have to
reboot?

-Gaurav.
