Having just upgraded slackware8.0 (2.2 kernel) to using 2.5.2, (2.5.3 patch install failed looking for malloc.h) Im unable to use swap, despite it showing a success.
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/swap/swapfile bs=1024 count=131072 13107+0 records in 13107+0 records out # mkswap -c /swap/swapfile Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 13414400 bytes # swapon /swap/swapfile swapon: /swap/swapfile: Success # cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 61720 kB MemFree: 1896 kB MemShared: 0 kB Buffers: 8300 kB Cached: 30712 kB SwapCached: 0 kB Active: 25316 kB Inactive: 19688 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 61720 kB LowFree: 1896 kB SwapTotal: 0 kB SwapFree: 0 kB
I've tried various kernel configurations, and it just doesn't want to work.
(It was however working under 2.2.x)
Any ideas?
