Now my swap partition is SUPPOSED to be 5Gig. Why is being reported as only 2gig?
AFAIK, there is a limit of 2 GB per swap partition. I don't know if the limit is still there in the newer kernels. You can generate 5 GB of swap by splitting it up into 3 swap partions: 2 GB, 2 GB, 1 GB. -- Andre Truter Software Engineer Registered Linux user #185282 ICQ #40935899 AIM: trusoftzaf http://www.trusoft.za.net <-------------------------------------------------> < The box said: Requires Windows 95 or better... > < So I installed Linux > <-------------------------------------------------> Disclaimer and Confidentiality Warning This message is intended for the addressee only.
