Ok now this is confusing.
4.1.3.1. The most simple
Is where you have just two partitions: one for the swap space, the
other
for the files1.
Tip: The rule of thumb for the swap partition size is to choose
double
of the size of your RAM memory. However for
large memory configurations (>512 MB), this rule is not valid, and
smaller sizes are preferred.
Says to double your ram to create your swap file then it contradicts
itself. Can someone explain exactly how this should be done and
maybe
some theory behind it? I don't just like knowing how I like to now
why.
Thanks.
