Hi,
No expert either, but can pass some info on my Slackware setup - its
probably similar...
df doesnt show me anything about swap
free does. Your free below shows 0 total swap space.
My fstab has this entry for swap:
/dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
How large is your swap partition? Its partition type is 82?
Good luck!
P.S. I was told its not good form to send a question to more than one list
at once...
