Adding and a memory stick ...


On my machine i got 256 MB of RAM, and i want to add another 256.
My swap partition is set 256 MBs which is of course the equal to the memory RAM.
Would i have to resize the swap partition to 512 ?
Would it give problems if i leave the swap partition untouched with 512 MBs of RAM ?



Kind Regards

Your computer will burst into flames the moment it senses more RAM

No, you will be just fine. No problems, rather wasted space probably, but no problems.

Cool
