What do you mean 30mb wouldn't work? I put a 32meg swapFILE on the
64meg mmc I received and it worked fine (/proc/meminfo and /proc/swaps
showed swap usage, and I could get numerous things running with out
problems. Now I'm trying to partition a 512meg MMC into two partitions,
and

In the latest firmware, there are scripts which are executed when those

Well it is solvable but hard. You could halt everything and display
something like 'Poor human, give me my card back or I will reboot'. But
this has to be done in low level (kernel thread?, direct framebuffer
access?) because anything in userspace can segfault when swap is removed.

If user has swapon. User opens MMC door. System pops up a large RED GUI
that states: You have swap active. Please turn off swap before removing
MMC from the slot. GUI would have one large button (turn off swap).
After swapoff, GUI would turn green and say, it's safe to detach MMC now.

with swap on, what happens to the system when you manually remove the

I am pretty sure the nokia will just crash if I eject it when swap is
active. We need to latch into the cardslot-opening and -closing events
