I put in a new HD today and noticed some things in fstab.
[root at daevid /]# cat /etc/fstab
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults
1 1
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620
0 0
/dev/hda3 /home ext3 defaults
1 2
none /proc proc defaults
0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults
0 0
/dev/hda2 swap swap defaults
0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto
noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/hdb1 /backups ext3 defaults
1 2
/SWAP swap swap defaults
0 0
/dev/hdd1 /MP3 auto defaults
1 2
Why do I have these TWO lines. Is one not needed?
/SWAP swap swap defaults
0 0
/dev/hda2 swap swap defaults
0 0
And consequently I have a file:
[root at daevid /]# ll /SWAP
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 270532608 Jun 3 13:31 /SWAP
Can I delete that line and that file? Is RH7.3 using both swaps?
