Hi all,
Situation:
I'm moving an (outdated) FC1 installation from a cramped, old
workstation to a brand-new one.
Previous one was a dual-boot with Win 2K, new one will be a
dual-boot with Win XP.
I'm using partimage from a live CD (System Rescue) to load
partition images generated on the old system into pre-created empty ext3
partitions on the new system.
Partitions being moved are **/boot** and **/** .
Partition layout on new system is a bit different from old system.
Swap partition was freshly created on new system (used Partition
Magic 8.01 under Win XP).
Questions:
How do I inform FC1 about the currrent location of the swap
partition ?
I recall having read (somewhere - ???, sometime ago . . .) that in
such cases the swap partition would be automatically detected and used. If
such is the case, a confirmation would be gladly welcome.
Thanx all
Thiers Botelho
