Should I be concerned about this message during a fresh install on a brand new hard drive? I have 1GB of physical memory. How necessary is the swap partition? Thanks for any pointers.
Bryce Hardy (Santa Rosa, CA USA) cygnia@sonic.net I'm running 9.1 on a box with 1GiB of memory. I do have a 1 GiB /swap as well, however, my machine never uses it. I really put this machine through its paces with development work, and I can't seem to run out of ram (except for the odd memory leak(s) in buggy programs).
If the machine works OK, I wouldn't worry about it. Regards, Mark
