 Hi,

 When I do a 
 
    beagleboneblack:/root>swapon /dev/sda2  
    beagleboneblack:/root>free
                total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
    Mem:        507476      50812     456664          0      13108      17244
    -/+ buffers/cache:      20460     487016
    Swap:      5242876          0    5242876
    

swap is added to the system.

If I add

    /dev/sda2	none		 swap  sw		                 0 0

swapspace will not be used after a reboot.

dmesg has nothing specific...

What did I wrong here? Why get swap not used via fstab?

Thank you very much for any help in advance!

Best regards,
mcc
