Bug Description

The default settings used when installing zram-config are not a great deal of use. The average user won't know this.

The zram swaps are given priority 5, but a HD swap is given -1, defeating the point.

What do you mean? Note that reading:
man 2 swapon
"Swap pages are allocated from areas in priority order, highest priority first."

That is very true, I apologise profusely.

There must be something else wrong. Sorry for the noise.
