Feature #305737, revision 1, last change by Title: remove warning of missing swap from expert partitioner
openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Desirable
Requested by: Arvin Schnell (aschnell) Partner organization: openSUSE.org
Description: There are requests to remove the warning about a missing swap device from the expert partitioner for systems with only SSDs. I want to go one step further and remove the warning altogether since RAM has increased so much in the past.

+ Discussion: + #1: Holger Macht (hmacht) (2012-09-25 17:02:30) + You need a valid swap partition in order to let suspend to disk (ACPI + S4) work. A swap file would be possible, too, however, this is not + implemented/integrated into our infrastructure and would be worth yet + another feature.
