Sbin Directory For Init Scripts

[daniel3000]

Hello,

I'm trying to create an init script which enables my swapfile at startup.
It is on Cacko 1.23 (SL-C3100).
script /etc/rc.d/init.d/swap,
linked in to rc3.d, rc4.d and rc5.d as S99swap.

contains (besides others) the line
swapon /hdd3/.swapfile


but on startup, I see the message flashing by that "swapon" cannot be found.
Even if I change this to

/sbin/swapon /hdd3/.swapfile

it still says that swapon is not available.
How can I know how this binary is available at the time when the init scripts are executed? OR does someone know already?


thanks
daniel

I included these things in "/opt/QtPalmtop/qpe.sh"

I looked at that file and I am not sure why there is a "while true" loop in there
So I don't know where to put the commands: before the loop, into the loop or behind the loop.
Could you please give some advice?

Thanks!

goto the script for mounting your hdd's and add a swapon /you/path to the bottom of the script. I believe the script responsible for mounting your hdd's is /sbin/hddmount

I have more info at my site on this, currently I am running a 128mb swap partition. /dev/hdx4
