upgrade from 2.4.4_1 to 2.4.4_2 lost swap file
-
Hi, i've just upgraded from 2.4.4_1 to 2.4.4_2 and my swap file is lost...
Can you help me?

What is in your
/etc/fstab
file? What device/slice/label should your swap device be?There was an issue in -p1 that prevented some devices from using their swap file properly, and the new code goes out of its way to find and use alternate swap devices if the device listed in
fstab
is not present. -
I can confirm that with 2.4.4._2, it's now showing swap space again for me, whereas it had disappeared prior. I have 32G of ram, and thought that maybe it didn't need it, and/or I was losing my mind as to why it wasn't there. I could of sworn it was there in 2.4.3. :)
