Bug Description
Binary package hint: dphys-swapfile
As far as I can tell, the maximum swap file size logic in the script is related to a long-gone bug in mkswap. mkswap will happily create files beyond 2GB now, and systems with well over 2GB RAM are common. The attached patch removes this logic. Tested successfully on on amd64 with XFS.
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
