Unless you want to try to resize your partition, using tools like resize2fs and fdisk (which sound risky),
Is there some technical reason you can't have the swap in 2 chunks? If the priorities are set correctly, then the swap partition should be used before the swap file would be.
Some other Unixes have traditionally also used the swap partition as a dump after a kernel panic, but I don't believe that Linux does this.

This isn't possibly going to create another swap file is it? I would just like to have one swap file.

Check into mkswap, which can be used to create a swap file within a partition.

Hi everyone,
Is there a way to increase the swap partition size after I have already have it setup on my system? I seem to have too little a swap partition (256 MB) and this is what Fedora originally gave me. I have a 120 GB hard drive so I can make this 1 GB for all that matters.
I just didn't want to disrupt the main partition since I have finally got it installed to some half way level and I don't want to install again.
Any help appreciated.
Chris
