I have been running 2.1.0R for quite some time now on a 486 DX/2 8MB
of ram, and with a 32 meg swap partition, ( which the install created
for me) and, just recently, upgraded the MB and memory to a DX4 120
mhz with 16MB of ram. Do I need to increase swap space correspondingly
with the memory increase? and how would I do it with out destroying
what I have now? The machine is running well, with the current
configuration........
