To be really sure you could remove the swapon commands from the appropriate /etc/rc files. You can use swapon -s to check what swap partitions are currently in use. You can use swapoff to turn off swap partitions manually (not permanent). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This e-mail has been digitally signed with GnuPG - ( http://gnupg.org/ )
