In the next screen, choose to format the partion as "Swap" and to mount the partition as "swap". 8) Inspect the contents of the "Partitions" view. Desired result: The partition you wanted as swap has FS Type "Swap" and Mount Point "swap". Actual result: The partition you wanted as swap has no FS Type and no Mount Point at all. -- 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.
