I assumed that if I do a manual partitioning of the USB flash drive's

I agree with you that my laptop w/ 2 GB RAM is probably not going to
need swap with reasonable desktop usage under Lubuntu. My test system
back in Singapore w/ 256 MB RAM would probably need it once I have mail,
web browser, and a few other apps running.
Thanks Goh Lip. Cheers, David
Hi, David, just a thought, maybe this might help..
You might want to ensure that your S'pore test system have hard drive
swap to a reasonable volumn, say at least 600 Mb. Then change your
Lubuntu fstab to include that swap partition so that when running on
that test system, it can use that.
As you mentioned, there is probably no need for the swap at your laptop.

ps: S'pore still have computers less than 1 Gb ram?
Thought they'd all be in Batam by now. :)
Buy you a Tiger beer when you're up north.
