If you're not going to do anything else with the slave drive, you should use a swap *disk*, rather than a swap partition. It'll be a little faster, though I don't know how much faster. Basically, instead of using /dev/hdb1 or something, replace it with /dev/hdb . -- Dwayne C. Litzenberger - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
