- I have a few questions that I was not able to get the answer out from
- the FAQ list and I am not a Unix pro. I have the following machine
-
- Gateway 2000 486 DX 33, 12M RAM, 325 meg hard drive (80 for DOS and the
- rest for 386BSD), MS serial mouse.
-
- 1. How do I setup swap space? Do I just edit the fstab file to add the
- correponding device and use swapon in my config file? Do I have to edit
- the disklabel too?
-
- 2. I am running Amancio Hasty's XBSD8514 server. It seems to hogging up
- as much CPU as it can get. Is this related to the fact that I don't have
- any swap space setup or is it some other problem?
-
- 3. I am interested in running a program that does a lot of floating
- point calculations. When I run the program I get floating point
- violations at unexpected points like in fprintf statement or printf
- statement. Has anyone experienced the same problem? Is there any fix in
- the patch kit for this? BTW I plan to install the latest version patch
- kit soon.
-
- Thanks in advance for your replies.

- Natraj.
