while that subject has been brought up......how hard is it to go and move my swap partition from one hard drive to another? i've got md9.1 installed on my 20gb hard drive (taking up 15gb of space) and i'd like to put my swap partition on my 100gb hard drive (and it's a faster hard drive too, so that's an even bigger bonus). if it's relatively easy to do (i'm 100% new here, so it's gotta be VERY simple or it'll have to wait til i learn a lot more), i'll move the swap partition over and enlarge it. my swap partition is i think 495mb right now (i let linux do it's own partitioning when i installed, i didn't mess with it), i'd like to make it a little larger, as i've heard to make it double the size of your physical ram, so that'd be a 1.5gb swap partition. thanks for any help!
