I have no swap listed when I run top. This is not true but the swap file at /dev/sda3 was around 250 bytes. I had just goofed but I had a much larger swap on the other hard drive and it worked great.

Now just one hard drive and today I used fdisk and redid this hard drive to have the same number of partitions but the /dev/sda3 is now 2 Gb. I used mkswap /dev/sda3 and it seemed to work but perhaps not because top still says no swap... I will read man mkswap and see if there is something else I need to do.


I forgot swapon -a and when I did that there is a huge swap file in top. So that works now.
