The swap partition can be used with the command swapon, for instance if my swap partition was /dev/hda4 then the command would be
You can add this command to /etc/rc.d/rc.local and it will execute automatically at bootup.
If you have multiple swap partitions/devices then you can use this command instead
That will activate all of them at once. In fact, it can be safely used if you only have one swap partition and aren't sure which one it is.

Code: Select all
swapon /dev/hda4
If you have multiple swap partitions/devices then you can use this command instead
Code: Select all
swapon -a
