please also CC me personally so as I dont miss any repiles

        Good listers

        I have read the HOWTO on installing Linux and in it there is mention that
your swap partition should be (20M - RamInMachine).  

        This makes good sense.  However why the 20M figure ?.  Is there some
reason that a bigger swap partition should'nt be used ?.  What if you have
32M Ram, can you therefor not have a swap partition ?.  Is a (say) 30M swap
partition better than a 4M patition (assuming you had 16M ram).

        Am I missing something _blindingly_ obvious (i'm running RH5.2 2.0.36 on a
P100).

        I hope my question makes sense and isn't too dumb..

Thanks in advance
