Guys, I would like to know where the swap file (not
swap partition) of Linux resides. This is because my
friend had installed RHL 7.3 on a box with 256megs ram
and had made only a 256 megs swap partition. 

He eventually screwed his grub and lilo and had to
reinstall his boot loader thru the CD.

During this he was prompted to make a swap file as a
result of insufficient space in the swap partition and
by mistake he clicked on next. Now the upgrade never
competes and quits by saying "Insufficient space to
build RPM database". This message occurs whether the
"Customize packages" option is checked or not.

So, how do I get to the swap file and delete it
without having to reinstall?
