Of yourse you can change this in expert partitioner an remove the usage of swap you do not want it to use. The default of using all swap partitions it find is not planned to be changed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As far as I see, this is what most people would expect. But anyway, this is just a proposal and can hardly fit everyones needs exactly, therefore it is quite easily possible to modify the proposal and remove the usage of /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 as swap I do not think that YaST2 should ignore swap LVM device, if present. I even got bug reports before YaST2 automatically used such device for swapping. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=290806#c8 --- Comment #8 from Thomas Fehr 2007-07-18 04:00:22 MST --- There is no restriction to one swap device. If there are two swap devices, both are used. The kernel load balances writes between the two devices. So performance-wise two partitions are better than one. There is an upper limit of concurrent swap devices, but it is at least 32, maybe even larger. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
