is there a datestamp on partitions in gparted, or any other way of deciding which swap goes with which other partition, the only identifier i have so far is size.
Nautilus doesnt seem to see the swap partitions so i cant see what goes with what.

Is there any way of seeing the dates of partitions, or figuring some other way what's what? [george] Before installing systems onto a PC, I draw out a map of the hard disks, and decide what partitions to set up and what will go where. For example, I might decide to put Ubuntu Studio in sda1, Mint in sda5, home in sda6, swap in another partition, etc. It also helps to make each partition a different size. Once something is installed, I use gparted to label each partition so I know what's what. If you install something without remembering what is what, then mount everything, examine the contents, and then label each partition in gparted.
