Mikael Very easy to understand......any way that requires entering the swaps into /etc/fstab therefore means that if any drive and it's contained swap fails the reboot can fail (plus the overhead of all those uuid numbers in fstab). My way means that as the swaps don't get loaded unless the drive is alive the reboot has more resilience.
