One for starting up all my stuff (incl. swap) and one for checking the written data amount of swap (to trigger defragmenting).

So nothing special compared to swapset or ereswap.
I did not take a deeper look into latest versions of both, but assume they are working. So you may go well with these packages.
Or take a look

or
here.
anything else you need to know, just post in general swap thread or PM me.
peterleinchen,

thank you for the crash intro
i'm switching from t-mob to voda this week-end and my prod N900 is having trouble with battery & hangs itself if i let some calls be ended by the other party
plus, after 2 years, conversation is a drag to open, of course.
so will make a fresh start
wanted to wait 'til i get my Sandisk 64 msxd back (the 1st one wasn't formatted properly ) but i guess the 32GB mcsd c10 will have to do
will see if i get around to write a couple SQLs to archive conversations or just start from scratch (after a full backup).

will report back if a "custom build" swap solution brings advantages compared to swapset ~:-}
hope won't have to bother you
