Re: [Xen-users] Xen 3.0.1, Debian Sarge: Swap file not recognized in guest

[Rene Kogels <forumuser@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi jc,

I tried it myself using Sarge and indeed it didn't work. When I used the
following command it did work:

#Create swap image
dd if=/dev/zero of=/root/swap.dat bs=1k seek=768k count=1
mkswap /root/swap.dat

Hope this helps,
Rene
