I mean to convert existing installation to the new way that would be installed from scratch, so have only zram and not have physical swap. I understand that we do not want to automagically remove physical swap on upgrade, but it would be nice to have howto that describes how to enable zram together with removal of physical swap. > > > > -- > Chris Murphy > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - -- Igor Raits <ignatenkobrain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEcwgJ58gsbV5f5dMcEV1auJxcHh4FAl7Z/5gACgkQEV1auJxc Hh4wuxAAqGsG3tdWdSEQl3VxEzL474KvKZMWjJ4JMRt4LPjvvr6U5zexeL+V8iPj vKRPfV6DGZy/cKmn4LlKK/t+C4ITYyTCK2x96CsL0qtNKC1xp5UoxBvgr/dKj4ao bBHjzQqubjW21FedOHfblECx8uGL+1taKENb2oNr+s0AOVAxXW9U88/GSf/bwJbC 8QDqeEuW4Ea3Lmr/3z19QchCH7EzQJqgpOrkPw5Q1b/aLcTdcqeO9jKOzBMUxyJe czuOGkFELcKRECJwvPTF7nkXBG48kIVGe/JJ57l66+RzF6djd4//IW58Qtj9aI8q HjN/LwdsgxcknSeF/tCXDkTk/STYLJ7C6WqdHJGEf+nHId54GrkYyXjRgIXFuy+P gM3TPtX8RJ5dFBpmOubGgMeQBos6doFWxKGCnER7s2qDBUOwv+EZUSx6IP7PdYA/ C9NF4vBb/qhhbR3zfBcdPYfbEmA+CUxabop81mmOIv1Q/xs0xsIkbMqg/nO0ya4q K2VmFmR3SMBVcXGWiY7G6MHk1rGIn1TWOtAlVYPgUoFS55e/ES5LG8SvCw2Vf7jP IBBEqoiphchhCUR7h/V0k4nT5TLXsdIkZHxKZVccHqGdUY7sPea09eX2Pv+jtKv4 OqqDEKD+XO+cXh5CHRZeLnJrKJfNkdRJ9Ur5pBq+/b4ZG5tjjH4= =ocnt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
