Subject: swapoff weird
Date: Sat, 9 Dec 2000 22:24:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20001209222427.A1542@bug.ucw.cz> (raw)

Hi!

It is possible to remove swapfile in use. Great, but how do you swap
off then? Who is to blame?

root@bug:~# swapoff /tmp/swap
swapoff: /tmp/swap: No such file or directory
root@bug:~# > /tmp/swap
root@bug:~# swapoff /tmp/swap
swapoff: /tmp/swap: Invalid argument
root@bug:~#

How do I get out of this bad situation?
