Partitions are scarce resources at the moment, since we don't have extended partition support. Do Linux users typically use a primary partition for swap? I never did when I was. If not, then we need the enhanced disk drivers to support extended partitions before using a full partition would be a useful idea, it seems. Getting swap into the ZFS pool seems likely to happen as quickly as that will, IMHO, and theoretically gets us out of requiring static space allocations. No reason we couldn't do both, I suppose, but I'd rather someone interested put their efforts into the ZFS direction than this.
Agreed. I wouldn't put a very high priority on logical partitions. -ian -- Ian Murdock 650-331-9324 http://ianmurdock.com/ "Don't look back--something might be gaining on you." --Satchel Paige _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
