There was a bug in 2.2.x kernels which could cause a kernel panic if you swaped on a RAID device that was re-syncing. AFAIK 2.4.x had it fixed long ago. So if you are running a 2.4.x kernel you can just edit the shell script in question to remove that check. > something in a manner which overflows into swop space.

Why not put "swapon -a" in a cron job? -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
