Does the 2gb limit on swap filesystem still apply? Or did I get lost in kernel 2.2 days? No, I have a 6 GiB swap.
Sorry, I worded my question poorly. I know you can make more than 2GB, I have several servers with 4GB.
What I meant is is the size of a single swap partition still limited to 2GB?
Reason I'm asking is that I want to get suspend (to ram and to disc) working on my notebook, which has 2GB RAM, so I need at least 2GB swap.
You can have multiple swap partitions and even use swap files.
I know but can I pass mutltiple swapfiles to the kernel for resuming? I'm not sure how that would work. The object is to get a successful resume after suspend to disc (see my other thread on HP nx6125). It is my understanding that the entire contents of the memory should fit into a single swap partition for resuming. For normal usage I have more than enough swop - hardly use it ever. Hans
