/dev/mapper/fedora-swap swap <===== there it is
My question is: Should I be worried that it's NOT showing a SWAP
partition? And could thi be why this laptop which has sufficient RAM is
kind of slow? And finally how would I go about adding a swap partition
from the command line (as opposed to a GUI...trying to learn how to do
more in the magical "Little Black Box"!) Any help offered would be
greatly appreciated.
It doesn't show a mount point because swaps are not mountable.
If you follow /dev/mapper/fedora-swap it will eventually lead you to a
physical location.
cat /proc/meminfo will show, among other things, how much swap you have
and how much of it is available.
Things that manipulate swap: /sbin/{mkswap,swapon,swapoff}
