I configured my swap partition to be (2*RAM) which was 64MB. I'm now finding that I'm running out of swap space and it's killing off processes when it happens. It's not continuous, but it appears to be happening at least once a day. Can I create a 2nd swap device without re-partitioning my current file systems?
