during an install of suse 9.2 workstation a dialog poped up saying it failed to create a swap space. the install compleated and suse seemed to run fine with some where around 300 meg of ram on a p4 2.6 gig proessor.

i checked partitioner in Yast and it showed a swap of around 700 meg but when i tried to unpack some win2k vmware files to use in conjunction with my work network via vpn it seemed to lock up solid. the hd light is still blinking so my guess is its running but reak slow.

winxp was on this box and with ever start up it would tell me it had to run checkdisk.

whats the best way to check/repair the swap partition?

(just took another look at it (kvm)...the mouse still wont move)
