- How does Amiga Linux manage its swap partitions? Does it use a complete
- RDB partition with a special type? In that case it shouldn't be a problem
- to make NetBSD recognize a Linux swap partition and use it.

- Hmmm... I just remember that Linux-i386 needs a call to "mkswap" to use
- a swap partition. Does it store any data there?
