% I just noticed that on SuSE, swap is mounted w/ a priority of 42. I
know that
% if you don't specify a priority it gets a priority of '-1'.
% I understand what the swap priority is for (man 2 swapon), but why
set it to
% 42? Is that better than -1? Or is it just a Douglas Adams reference?
42 is better than -1 (re-read the swapon man page). Is that the
priority or the nice value? -1 has always worked for me. Of course,
that
value goes all the way to MAXINT (32767, or some such), so 42
isn't as good as 420.
It could be an Adams reference, too.
