hello to all
yestarday i installed linux mint 19 on my dell 2-1 2017 notebook. all it works. it's fine and speedy.
a question:
i have seen that mint have created 3 partitions autmatically ( i used first option installation and erase all disk ). 2 partitions are of swap.
why are they 2? one is active the second is not active.
i have seen also that on monitor resource programm the swap dimension is always 0.
i have 4 gbyte ram.
thanks for helps
two partitions of swap: one active and one not active

partition to the /etc/fstab
file. sudo blkid

Re: two partitions of swap: one active and one not active
You don't need 2 swaps. Run these commands from a terminal, mark their output, copy & paste into your next post, ideally within code tags (</> button)
Code: Select all
lsblk -o +FSTYPE,UUID
Code: Select all
swapon
