Jun 23 12:20:19 <am4zing> [root@router ~]# swapon /media/nand/swapfile
Jun 23 12:20:20 <am4zing> swapon: /media/nand/swapfile: swapon failed: Invalid argument
Jun 23 12:20:24 <am4zing> ideas?
Jun 23 12:26:37 <kerio> am4zing: did you mkswap?
Jun 23 12:26:58 <am4zing> looks like a differnt issue
Jun 23 12:27:07 <am4zing> how cna i simply wipe my nand
Jun 23 12:27:11 <am4zing> to put my swap file on
Jun 23 12:27:23 <kerio> you mean in a partition?
Jun 23 12:27:41 <kerio> i have no idea how to tell the kernel to consider different nand partitions
Jun 23 13:34:46 <ShadowJK> nand is not a block device. You can only swap on block devices.
Jun 23 13:35:11 <am4zing> yeah worked that out now :/
Jun 23 13:35:35 <am4zing> i'll just put the PXE stuff on there
Jun 23 13:35:40 <am4zing> as the SD card is a little slow
Jun 23 13:35:49 <am4zing> and PXE is the only thing serving up large files
Jun 23 13:36:11 <ShadowJK> Nokia's new N9 actually swaps on nand, they wrote a "mtdswap" kernel module to do it
Jun 23 13:38:10 <am4zing> i did google that also
Jun 23 13:38:20 <am4zing> looked like too much pain
Jun 23 15:48:33 <kerio> wtf
Jun 23 15:53:47 <kerio> ShadowJK: well, you could use mtdblock*
Jun 23 15:53:51 <kerio> >:D
Jun 23 15:55:59 <ShadowJK> probably extremely slow :)
Jun 23 15:56:27 <kerio> just make a tmpfs and use a swapfile in there
Jun 23 15:56:35 <kerio> i mean, duh
