Subject: L100CT/Win2K - shutdown hangs with swapfile on pcmcia disk

I've been playing around with putting my Win2K swapfile on a PCMCIA disk
(actually a fast CF card in an adaptor) - seems to speed things up a little,
and saves the IDE disk from much thrashing. (Yes, yes, I know - limited NAND
flash write cycles, blah, blah :-)

However when I try to shutdown my Libby, it gets as far as displaying the
"Windows is shutting down..." dialogue and then hangs - including the
pointer. Same thing happens trying to hibernate (Win2K hibernate, not
Libby's).

I'm guessing that Win2K is trying to access the swapfile after the PCMCIA
driver has been killed - does anybody know any better, or have a way around
this?

Chris.
