Hello! I'm having some difficulty creating "special" swapfiles to be able to test swapping to/from an "md" device (raid0). I've followed the manpage hints as indicated below, and think that it's complaining about the individual file(s). Can anyone guide me in the right direction?
tcsh# df /server/ Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on /dev/md0 5970540 3908064 1753225 69% /server tcsh# cd /server/ tcsh# mkdir swap tcsh# cd swap tcsh# dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1024 count=8192 8192+0 records in 8192+0 records out tcsh# mkswap swapfile 8192 Setting up swapspace, size = 8384512 bytes tcsh# sync tcsh# swapon swapfile swapon: swapfile: Invalid argument tcsh# Any ideas?
