official RHL customization guide, "adding swap space", reads in part, to add a swap partition:
"The hard drive can not be in use (partitions can not be mounted, and swap space can not be enabled). The easiest way to achieve this it [sic] to boot your system in [sic] rescue mode." say what? i've numerous times added a swap partition to a running system with a combination of fdisk/mkswap/swapon. has this changed? rday
