how about stopping the N900 from unmounting SD card?
in this i mean by scripts or something, the low tech mode would be to place a very small neodymium magnet where the magnet sensor is, this way the N900 would think that the cover is still on and not unmount SD card

reinob, i would not bother with this if performance increase is only marginal for swap striping.

i actually found performance to be noticeably improved with swap striping under heavy load so i'm quite interested to know how to do this.

Hi there all.
Until yesterday I was using only one swap partition on micro sd with the "build" in one disabled.
I've decided that having two independent swap partitions will be better so I did everything as it was described here:
https://wiki.maemo.org/Swap_on_microSD
Everything is working fine and both swaps have the priority of 0 (zero). Well it is fine until the next reboot. Is there any way to change this so I don't have to re-write commands after each and one reboot?
I did all work without starting the Easy Debian itself, just from the Debian Chroot app from maemo menu.

It is not better to have mmcblk0p3 activated when using swap on SD.
But if you like it that way just create a small.script and put it in /etc/event.d ...

For dual swap partitions I have been using the program Flopswap for a long time and just forgot about this issue.
Flopswap contains a script to swap from SD card /dev/mmcblk1p3 to /dev/mmcblk1p2 back and forth to prevent swap space fragmenation and that really helps.
You can remove the SD card safely after using the flopswap option: "swap to device"
51 days uptime and fast swapping.

So easiest way is to make two seperate swap spaces on micro sd, install flopswap and the reboot issue will be solved by the app itself?
and if I decided to keep my swap as it is should I add to rcs file something like this?:
Add:
I just created two equal 512mb swap partitions and it seems to work with flopswap. Didn't have much time to test, but first impression is good, got 3 full web info pages loaded and browsing is fast - but I running mine n900 at 1000mhz, but the previous setup had some problems with same pages.
