I just acquired a small 30M drive, IDE, and want to add either half or all of it as swap space. What do I have to do? I am running 2.0.5R on a 486DX/2-66, 8M RAM, with a 540M HD partitioned for 200M DOS (1st par.), and 320-something for FreeBSD. My current swap is 20M, and I have a 20M / partition. The /usr partition makes up the remaining space. I have ~2M free on /, and ~25M free on /usr. DOS has ~75M free. Suggestions? Jon Nelson nels0988@maroon.tc.umn.edu
