Do you install it to the swap partition or the other partition? Posted by stupid_idiot on Nov. 01 2007,23:45

Once a partition is formatted as swap, it can't be used for anything else (until you reformat it).It is also possible to use a swap file on Linux, although this is less common than using swap partitions.
