Public bug reported: The LiveCD should detect and automount swap partitions. It's important, in particular, for system like mine, which only has 256M of memory. Of course it shouldn't consider swap partitions currently filled in by hibernation data.
Last time I used knoppix (2 years ago...) it mounted any swap partition already present on my HD. Whenever it couldn't find any swap partition and if memory was not enough to start KDE, it even used to ask the user if it had to create a swap file in Windows' partition and run KDE or startup in text mode! ** Affects: casper (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- swap partitions not automounted by the LiveCD https://launchpad.net/bugs/62868 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
