Live swap not working
I'm running a custom sid build (3.12.1-686-pae) and using the latest
live-boot and live-initramfs-tools from experimental.
With "swap" on cmdline an existing swap partition is not autoconfigured.
This is a problem on a low-ram machine.
Here's a snip from the boot log, in case it's relevant:
+ grep -q swap /proc/filesystems
+ modprobe swap
modprobe: module swap not found in modules.dep
+ grep -q swap /proc/filesystems
+ uname -r
+ kmodule=/root/lib/modules/3.12-1-686-pae/swap/swap.ko
+ [ -e /root/lib/modules/3.12-1-686-pae/swap/swap.ko ]
+ return 1
+ [ -n ]
+ return 1
The correct entry does gets written to /etc/fstab.d/swap
I already know "mount" doesn't process fstab.d .. what I don't know is
if the problem is something I missed, the live scripts or something
elsewhere in my system.
As a temporary fix I made another initrd with 3020-swapon edited to
write the entry to /etc/fstab
