Hi, I have just installed FreeBSD on an old 486 for evaluation purposes (I currently administer 10 Linux based PCs), and have a couple of questions: Making more swap space: Is there an equivalent program to Linux's 'mkswap' for making a new swap partition/swap file? and is it actually possible to use a swap file instead of a swap partition? I'm sure I remember reading somewhere that it was possible, but I can't find a program which will do this. cheers David -- David Hedley (David.Hedley@bris.ac.uk) http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/~hedley/ finger hedley@cs.bris.ac.uk for PGP key Computer Graphics Group | University of Bristol | UK *** All opinions expressed are mine and mine alone ***
