I've decided to get rid of my swap parition. Now, was that really a good idea? I don't know. My pc has 1024MB ram and I think it should be sufficient and possibly I'll go for 2gigs of ram soon. Are there any reasons to keep a small amount of swap somewhere?

Just in case you need it. Unless you really need that extra 1-2gig of diskspace.

Well, it's not a question of space. I wouldn't care to free up some space for swap.

So?

But well. There are enough threads about the issue. This will soon turn into another one, unless moved to duplicates.
