After your explanation I understand the situation much better.

Did you move or resize it? Did you in any way monitored it with a PC?
Maybe just connecting N900 to a linux PC using backupmenu rw mode causes the UUID creation. The Linux PC needs to distinguish the partition and provides the UUID to do it. Unfortunately I cannot test this since I do not have an image before the UUID creation.

Any changes to the partition with GParted caused a UUID to be created. It seems the UUID is stored in the filesystem when generated, with no way to remove it. Did you try to clear rootfs and restore a backupmenu image?

Unfortunately the only image I got (flopswap works fine to it, so I guess no UUID) for reasons I was unable to track reboots all the time. That is why I reflashed and started putting everything back. Now I have a rock-solid system with much more goodies (added 720p recording, a dedicated partition for easy debian that works so fast, etc) and the only thing not working is flopswap

New Flopswap pushed to Extras-Devel.
Standard Extras-Devel rules apply only tested on two devices but can't see any issues occurring.
This update fixes the UUID issue "taxaza" mentioned.

The swaps are now located in the same method as eMMC is found in CSSU rcS-late and no longer depends on the swaps "TYPE" or "UUID" to locate internal memory.

Please report any issues, thanks.

Changelog
0.1.3
* Change how swap spaces are located to fix UUID issue
* Added extra banner message during refresh

Thanks, no problem. I should be thanking you for making me look for a better solution and testing it.

BTW in the rush to release the package I messed up the changelog, not a huge issue but I will fix in the future.

What do we think of the extra banner message, I put that in there so it didn't look like the application was hanging while swapoff is happening.

Fixed my post above like I said I would and included a changelog.

As usual any feedback welcome.

I think it is much better this way. I remember I was puzzled the first time I tried flopswap and thought that it did hang or that it didn;t accepted my click on the button. Again, good job!

FlopSwap 0.1.4 uploaded to Extras-Devel

Changelog
* Added initial start help text
* Delete QSettings due to incorrect permissions

I have added an initial "one time only" dialog to help new users of the application.

Also I have fixed a bug I found in the process of creating the above.

Your FlopSwap QSettings will be removed if you upgrade from a version <=0.1.3
Fortunately there's only one QSettings setting and nobody spotted that wasn't working correctly, anyway
If you have FlopSwap set to the default settings you will not notice any change.

Minor suggested fixes:

Swap to Device doesn't seem to display the "moving swap..." banner.

"Swap Refresh Sucessful" - fix the spelling (add "c").
