hello, all!
I also had a space problem so changed my swap partition to a linux native
partition. Then created a swapfile. thsi has worked as i can use swapon
and swapoff. i have mounted thsi partition as /home
but...it does not seem to load the swapfile at startup and i have to
maually do that...
i have created a file called 'swap' in /etc/rc.d/init.d/
Interestingly, when i use the command "/etc/rc.d/init.d/swap start" (which
runs "swapon -a") it works but "/etc/rc.d/init.d/swap stop" (which runs
"swapoff -a") doesn't and says "/home/SwapDir/SwapFile" is not a valid
argument.
I have set my fstab as:
/home/SwapDir/SwapFile none swap defaults 0 0
any help would be appreciated... ;-)
cheers,
adrian b.
