Swap "file" and swap "partition" are two different things.
Did you get the system installed?Rahl333 wrote:So I booted from the cd and entered 'puppy pfix=ram'
Then I was reinstalling by following this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NutFVK-zYGo
I set up a new partition table in gparted, and I created a swap. I clicked apply and eventually got this error message: "an error occurred while applying the operations", then the swap changes to "unknown".
Does anyone know what went wrong?

A full or frugal install?
Size and partition number of attempted swap partition?
