[LUG] Swap



To get swap working:

Create partition for swap - double physical RAM is a good bet.  Use linux
fdisk or pqmagic, whatever is more appropriate.

Add line to /etc/fstab that reads:

/dev/hda8               swap                    swap    defaults        0  
0

(note that last 0 should be on the same line as the rest of it).

Change hda8 to whereever your swap is located.  Reboot.  Should work :)
