Other Help Topics :: the swap



hi,

i created a swap partition (0x82) with fdisk, but DSL doesnt recognize it (total swap = 0kb in the system stats). can anybody help?

thanks

try cfdisk
You not only need to create the partition but also run the command:

mkswap /dev/xxx

Then DSL will automatically use it with each boot.

yes thanks roberts it works ;)
