Hi everyone,

Rather than worrying about creating a slice just for swap, can we reuse

it looks like it works too (though it's labeled "experimental" in 0.6).
This have some considerations. Linux saves its RAM to swap when hibernates
with swsusp, so proper care should be taken to not blow out user's data.
Besides, some people also crypt their swap partition.
But perhaps the Moinak already had this in mind. I don't know, honestly.
Crypted swap is possible via Xlofi as will be crypted access to Linux
swap. Currently
I have a check for LKCD type dumps in the Linux swap but as you say
presence of
a hibernated image must also be checked.

Moinak.
