[BusyBox] Fsync mkswap

[Thomas Cameron]

Hello,
	One thing you'll want to check is if swapon/swapoff looks in
fstab for the mountpoints for swap space.  I believe it does, but I
might be wrong.  Try specifying _where_ the swap space is by executing
`swapon /dev/ram1`.  Keep in mind, however, that using RAM for swap
space isn't the most orthodox practice.  You may be better off just
running without swap space, unless you have an application the
specifically requires it.  Good luck!

I'm have trouble with my rc.sysinit.
I attempt create swap disk in ramdisk. This my script:
...
mkswap -v1 /dev/ram1
swapon -a
...

But after executing swapon, output message about what
no signature swap not found (or familiar this).

I'm using kernel 2.2.14 compiled on Red Hat 6.2 (Zoot).

Please, help me to solve this trouble.

With best regards,
Stas Noskov.
(Sorry for my bad english)
