Title: [E2] Creating a 64mb Swap File in Kaleidescope Post by: u4ia_eclipse on October 15, 2007, 06:38:46 pm Hi everyone.. Im currently using the Kaleidescope firmware for the E2. And from what i know of is that Kaleidescope cannot create swap files.
But i've tested that Kaleidescope can mount an already created swap file using swapon/swapoff. The mpkg that im using and i have tested to work is attached here. It is able to mount a 12mb swap file. But im looking for a bigger swap file. Because of Kaleidescope's limitation, i tried creating a swap file from scratch just by making a random big-sized file and naming it as the swap file but it failed. So I guess the phone needs an authentic swap file to work.. So i would like to ask a favor if you someone could send me a 64mb swap file.. Please put a 64mb swap file in archive and upload it somewhere or send it so that i can be able to use it. Correct me if im wrong about Kaleidescope not being able to create swap files.. Teach me if there's a way! Thank you for your help! Title: Re: [E2] Creating a 64mb Swap File in Kaleidescope Post by: Taurnil on October 16, 2007, 12:07:40 pm type
swapon /dev/mmca5 or make a script to enable/disable swap partition Title: Re: [E2] Creating a 64mb Swap File in Kaleidescope Post by: u4ia_eclipse on October 17, 2007, 01:21:10 am is using swap partitions really the best way to use swap?
