I wanted to disable swap at boot, so I added "noswap" (besides nomce) at
the linux line of the grub entry. However noted swap is still enabled (at
my desktop)......
pop at cruz:~$ swapon -s
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/sda6 partition 2559996 0 -1
Is there something I missed out?
note: I do not want to disable swap at fstab as this OS (ubuntu with e17)
is on the thumb drive and when at my desktop, I wanted the swap to be
enabled (booted by the desktop grub) and when at other computers (booted
by the thumb grub) and obviously unable to use swap, I do not want the
system to search for non-existent swap partition.
Thanks and regards - Goh Lip
