This is a solution, but a swap file will not perform as a swap partition (which is way faster). If you have enough space and you can take the risk there is a GNU software, parted, that permits to resize partitions, given the proper conditions. You can find out more here: http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/parted.html#features Backup your data before using parted. Bye, Daniele -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
