Although it it turned on, it is not specifying a specific device, and the machine is crashing. If I take out the swapon line from etc/rc the machine will work properly, however I am then limited in memory. Would someone please tell me if/what device I need to add to the fstab file to notify swapon that a swap disk is on the system? Is there anyplace I could look to find that info, or am I just missing something obvious. Ken
