Wonderful idea. Why did I forget about the swap-partitions?
-I've used that on Linux always, but I never gave it a thought.
This is indeed something I plan to do! =)
Be careful on Panther. I was having trouble getting it mounted early
enough, so I
just changed the mount options to be a union mount, so that new files
and changed
files would go on the swap without having to figure out how to mount it
that early.
