Yes.

Ok, good to know. Thanks.

I do have /dev/hdc2 set up as additional swap, so I made the
edit and tried again. Unfortunately it did not help (though it
sounds like it wasn't really expected to help with the crash).

Just to be pedantic I also tried configuring with no swap
visible, ie.

disk = [ 'phy:/dev/hdc1,hda1,w']

but as probably expected that did not help.

I expect the problem is that I am doing something so dumb it
is not easy to see...

Cheers,

Scott
