Interesting. I've never had to resize a swap partition. I generally start a new system using a commercial distro and just let it use the default size for a swap partition. My current systems have swap size the same a RAM size. You do know that you can use both a swap partition and a swap file at the same time, right? -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
