Re: Increasing swap and tmp space

Hi

Do you still have un-assigned space in your disk, if yes, you may create 2nd swap space then mkswap to initialize.
At last, put one line in /etc/fstab. After reboot, system enable your swap. Or #swapon -a does the same.

If you don't have un-assigned space, you will be able to create swap file on your filesystem.

Good luck
