Hi

I run UMLS using debian 2.6.8 host kernel (debian packaged SKAS patch
applied) and a 2.4.27. kernel ( from kernels - dot - org) with base and bs1
patches applied.  The file system I used is an upgrade Debian 3.0 r2 ext2
file system.
Once I initially start the UML, I had no swap space.  The device ubd1 did
not do anything.
I manually removed this device from the /dev/ list and created a replacement
by
mknod ubd1 b 98 16
I also added a mount entry into the UML's /ect/fstab file.
I then restarted the UML and hey presto It seems I have a swap partition
within the UML.

However.....
How do I verify that it is infact being used.  It seems that if I make the
initially memory for the UML small, say 30Mbytes, (which I accidentally
did - see recent post, Stack Over Flows) the UML crashes.  It seems that the
UML is not using the 300+M swap space at all and simply falls over.

Am I missing something while setting up the swap space?
Is there a way of verifying that it eve works?

Thanks
Gerhard
