Super.
I guess that I will make a SWAP partition on my HDD, when I get home.

Did just add a 1GB SWAP partition to my main TL-WR1043ND :mrgreen:
The router did not automatically recognize it, but with a simple

Code: Select all

mkswap /dev/sda2
I got the SWAP partition up and running right away.

Maybe it did not recognize it automatically, as it is not the first partition on the HDD, but who knows.

I have also setup the swap partition as a primary partition, where I can see that you have set yours up as a logical partition. It should not make a difference in Linux, but maybe it could make a change in the auto activation mechanism used by Gargoyle.

I can't remember if I needed to reboot my router or not

I've changed the wiki

I have also rebooted but it did not work before I ran mkswap... afterwards, I rebooted, to make sure that it was still working and it is working fine :mrgreen:
