I am running 3.0-CURRENT off of the most recent snapshot. I have a strange problem with swap -- maybe it's just me doing something dumb... Is it possible to swap on three partitions? There are three drives in the system and I set up a swap partition on each to improve interleved performance. But when I do a swapon -a it starts swapping on the first two (i.e. the first two entries in fstab) and says the third is an "invalid argument". Changing the order in fstab changes which two devices it swaps on. Did I miss something? Reading the swapinfo and swapon man pages led me to believe there was no two partition limit... Thanks for the help.
