Allen,

Last week I asked about a problem with not being able to mount swap space.
Here is the output from /sbin/disklabel:

disk:

Bytes/Sector: 512

Tracks/Cylinder: 15
Sectors/Cylinder: 1155

                                            this means how many the drive can
                                            support.

Partition a: is my root and usr partion.
          d: looks like it is the whole disk (I used to this being c: but ok)
          e: looks like it is my MacOS boot partion (It is the right size and
                      almost at the start of the disk [ I should be the disks
                      first physical partion].)

I wanted to add a line:
b: 131072 1985952 swap 1024 8192 16 ( 1719*-1819 )
In fact I think I inadvertantly tried (q! does not seem to cancel disklabel)
I got an error of disk RPM 0 and a segmentation fault.  The segmentation
fault I assume is from the type 9 file system which is 1 beyond what BSD
knows about. I didn't want to play with this too much as I didn't want to
trash MacOS and all fy files!!!! :-(

Is RPM realy used for anything? can I set it to something like 3600?

Thanks.
