Hello

i am trying to compile kernel version 2.6.3 + patch 2.6.4. rc1.
Everything works but swapon fails with the message function not implemented.

Try this:
grep SWAP /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_SWAP=y

If you don't have it set then you need to configure the kernel set it. Swap is in the General setup section and it's not called swap, it's called "Support for paging of anonymous memory."
