1 Hi,
2
3
4 I would like to increase the speed of my machine by putting some swap on a
5 fast pendrive. It is working manually by starting a script
6
7 swapon -s
8 swapon -p -1 /dev/sdb1
9 swapoff /dev/sda6
10 swapon -p -2 /dev/sda6
11 swapon -s
12
13 but, I would like to make it automatic by creating an udev rule, so when I
14 plug in that device the swap space is automatically activated and the
15 priority is changed. I've tried to google for a solution like this, but I
16 did not find. Maybe you already have some script at hand :) can you please
17 share this with me?
