Subjectfdisk and /proc/swaps do not agree. why?
Hello,

I understand that there is a maximum size of a swap partition but I do not
understand why the difference between what fdisk reports about the size
(in blocks) of my swap and /proc/swaps is not a constant. I.e. on one
machine the difference is 4 blocks (a page), and on another it is 7
blocks, which is not even integer number of pages. The only question I
have about this is:

Why?

Regards,
