app2sd + swap partition


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I create manually my partitions (fat32, ext3 and swap) with a linux distribution on my sdcard.

Modaco moves my apps to the ext3 partition, but apparently, it doesn't use the swap partition.

# free

free

total used free shared buffers

Mem: 197016 190492 6524 0 96

Swap: 0 0 0

Total: 197016 190492 6524

Is it the same thing for you or not?

Maybe I didn't create correcly my partitions.

Thanks :-)

PS: I'm using Modaco 5.1

Was just thinking about this myself. Just so I got this right, install Swapper, go to settings, advanced preferences, set to use swap partition, choose partition and then it's good to go? Any need to change Swappiness size from recommended 10 to like 30 or so? I have 32mb swap set up.

Thanks in advance :)

Yes, don't raise that value. 10 is fine.
