Hello, May be you remember than recently I had a mess with swap, getting an unknown swp uuid. I just learn than hen installing Debian on a disk, Debian reformat the swap partition with a new uuid... and of course when I had my problem I just installed a Debian on the same drive (but of course an other partition). Reason to use /dev/sdXY for multiboot swap jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I don't know if Debian install allows it, but the trick would be to tell it to use and not format the swap partition. openSUSE allows this. If not, then you have to change the uuid or whatever in openSUSE to match. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

I know for openSUSE, but from memory Debian is not as detailed as openSUSE at this step

the simpler way is probably not to add the swap at install time and add it after anyway, one need to know the feature in case of multiboot :-( jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

If it's possible in Debian, howto is a secret.

This is how I've been doing it. I've found no other way from the Debian side to deal with the problem. Editing fstab later is simple enough, and my fstabs mount native filesystems by label anyway, human manageable, unlike UUIDs.
anyway, one need to know the feature in case of multiboot :-(
So I had to learn it many moons ago. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.
