[Request] extend dosswapfile boot option

(1/2) > >>

Xianwen Chen:
Hello fellow TCers,

I'm confused on dosswapfile. I though it would be same as pagefile.sys, which is the swap file used in Windows, so I specified as


--- Code: ---dosswapfile=hda1/pagefile.sys
--- End code ---

However, TC doesn't treat it as a dosswapfile, as I didn't see any increase of memory via 'top' command.

Any hint please?

^thehatsrule^:
The syntax for that option accepts only "hdXx" or nothing at all  (i.e. see f2 on a livecd boot)

Currently, the filename has to be "tc.swp".  The swapfile tool can create this for you.

You can request that as a feature if you want to add that kind of syntax.

Xianwen Chen:
Thanks!

I'm currently using grub4dos to load tc. I couldn't access f2.

Where shall I post to request for a new featurea?

^thehatsrule^:
If you have the f2/f3 files, they can be read with any text viewer.  It looks like it's also available on the wiki.

We could turn this into a request thread if you want, or you could start another thread.

Xianwen Chen:
Thanks for your quick response.

I've read through f2/f3 doc from wiki.

Could you please turn this thread into a feature request?  ;)
