Hi All,

Just moved from 2.10 to M2 1.0 and at the end of the SysLog I have this message:

"Unable to find swap-space signature"

Any idea of why this is happening and which impact it may have on the system?

Thanks.

Thanks Ralph,

is it safe to run the system or is better to revert back to V2.10?

Which impact it has on the system?

The swap is necessary for UPnP, but in systems with lots of RAM, it fails to initialize due to it's size and associated build time. That is a problem with v1.00 and is resolved in v1.01. It is not harmful to your systems in any way. The only side effect is that UPnP will not start without swap.

Ok, my system has 2GB of RAM so it means UPnP will not work, right?

Correct

A bug in the logic causes the swap creation code to time out and move on without actually mounting the swap. Later, when UPnP is launched, it checks for the presence of swap and fails if swap is not available.

The code that creates the swap is fixed in v1.01 and will resolve the UPnP issue.

You can remove some of the ram so you can use upnp until next release. I have 512M and all seems happy.

Thanks Dimension but it doesn't make any sense, I've 2 1GB DIMM so it will be useless.

Luckily the next version is less than 1 week far and should resolve the problem.

Tony, Ralph, are you evaluating the possibility of extending the download grace period for who have bought M2 as soon as been released? To me looks that the real M2 will be with V.1.0.1
