Currently I have a 50Mb swap partition, I have 12Mb of physical ram. This is fine. Usually twice the size is good up to 256Mb, when you should make the partition the same size as RAM.

You should look at tools like GNU parted (package: parted) to see if it can help you. > `- Debian - when you have better things to do than to fix a system <- I > like this!
