Hello AFAIK, I think you do not want to do that. First: You need to load the kernel from the swap, in the time it loads, you have no running kernel (well, there is a little part, but that one has no clue about network). Second: You do not want swap on nfs, since it is terribly slow, buggy, nfs can allocate memory to transfer data and you get a circular problem - to get a memory, you need to get a memory. And, what if your cat steps on the ethernet cable? Third: the suspend does not use swap as a swap, but as a part of a disc. You might try suspend to ram, thought. It should work on diskless machine as well as on any other. -- When all else fails, EAT!!! Michal 'vorner' Vaner
