Add this to /etc/fstab after your entry for "/". /dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0 Then run "swapon -a" as root. The next time you reboot, it'll be mounted automatically. For more info, read the man pages on mount, /etc/fstab, mkswap and swapon. -- +----------------------------------------------------+ | Eric G.
