 use a swap space with 1 bad block.)
 In the new style swap area this is precisely what is done.

+The maximum useful size of a swap area depends on the architecture and kernel version.
 It is roughly 2GiB on i386, PPC, m68k, ARM, 1GiB on sparc, 512MiB on mips,
-128GiB on alpha and 3TiB on sparc64.
+128GiB on alpha and 3TiB on sparc64. For kernels after 2.3.3 there is no that limitation.
 
 Note that before 2.1.117 the kernel allocated one byte for each page,
 while it now allocates two bytes, so that taking a swap area of 2 GiB
