I'm using an xBox with an NFS root and a FatX file for swap. I'm not sure what you'd gain by not using the hard drive for swap, my swap file is just a 256MB file on hda50. The swap file doesn't effect the native xBox functions.
I have heard of people doing network swapping, however, it seems to not be thought as a good idea. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I know it is possible to run Linux on XBox with a > root on NFS, but the > instructions to do so usually then suggest using the > local hard drive > for swap.
