Bug Description
https:/
in particular:
> On 32-bit architectures (i386, m68k, 32-bit SPARC, and PowerPC), the maximum size of a swap partition is 2GB
this limitation was removed after 2.3.3, and referred to swap areas in general not just partitions
> As an example, an older home machine might have 32MB of RAM and a 1.7GB IDE drive
you get the idea...
